For the New South Wales State Rail Authority the arrival of the first of a batch of eighty 81Class locomotives in September, 1982 was the start of a new era. It represented a significant increase in power rating over existing mainline units (2240kW/3000hp vs a previous maximum of 1500kW/2000hp), featured an innovative and highly serviceable mechanical design, included up-to-date computer technology and was the first new class of locomotive to appear in the red striped candy livery. In 1991, a batch of four additional units were also the first new locomotives in the Freight Rail blue scheme
