The LWP Ewp of the Electric Local Railway Vienna State Border near Hainburg (LWP) was a series of electric locomotives that was used on the Pressburger Bahn .

The locomotives were delivered from 1913. When the Pressburger Bahn opened in 1914, there were initially six machines with the numbers 1 to 6 available, with number 6 belonging to the Hungarian subsidiary Pozsony Országhatárszéli Helyiérdekű Villamos Vasút (POHÉ.V.). In 1916 two more locomotives with the numbers 7 and 8 were delivered. From 1921, the Austrian Federal Railways (BBÖ) took over the operation of the route, which the locomotives designated 1005.01-08 and stationed them in the then Groß-Schwechat train transport line .

After the connection of Austria to the German Reich on March 12, 1938, the BBÖ went into the Deutsche Reichsbahn on (DR), the series key E gave the locomotives 72nd

From 1953 the locomotives became the 1072 series . At the end of the 1950s, the six locomotives that remained after the war were modernized. They received a new welded box, new pantographs and compressed air instead of vacuum brakes.

With a service weight of 56 tons and a top speed of 60 km / h, these machines were typical local railroad locomotives and no longer fit into the "modern times". Nevertheless, they did traction service until 1975 and were gradually replaced by class 4030 multiple units .

The 1072.04 has been given the wrong number 1072.01 since 1975. After being taken out of service, it was parked in the locomotive shed at Weilheim station (Oberbay) from 1977 to 1986 . The machine was acquired by the Verband der Eisenbahnfreunde (VEF) from a German railway collector and on September 21, 2014 transferred from the Strasshof Railway Museum to the Schwechat Railway Museum by a rescue train . 1072.05 was not open to the public in Marchegg until January 2018 and was scrapped on behalf of the technical museum during the period mentioned. This means that only one locomotive of this series has survived.
