The class 145 goes back to the prototype 12X, which AEG Hennigsdorf presented to the public in 1994 and had tested as 128 001 at the DB. The experience gained from this was incorporated into the 145 series. Shortly after the order for the 145 series, AEG Schienenfahrzeugtechnik GmbH was merged with ABB-Henschel to form Adtranz. In order to rationalise production and later maintenance, the 145 series was brought more into line with the 101 series, which was being built at the same time, shortly before the planned start of construction of the prototypes. This affected, among other things, the converters, control technology and bogies, but also the outer form.

The 145 001 was presented to the public on 10 July 1997.

From 15 January 1998, the type approval of the Federal Railway Authority was available, so that the series delivery of initially 80 locomotives could begin. The first ten locomotives were built at the Adtranz plant in Hennigsdorf, the other 70 units at the Kassel plant. In book form, they are all based at the Seddin depot (where the medium-scale maintenance and repair work takes place) and are deployed from there throughout Germany for DB Cargo Deutschland. A planned follow-up order was cancelled in favour of the dual-system variant class 185 Traxx F140 AC.

This model represents the variant of the BR 145 as a DB locomotive.

The model has a minimum radius of R40 and can be equipped with one or two Powered Up drives or one or two 9 Volt motors.
