The locomotives of ČSD's Class E 426.0 (ČD's Class 113) are essentially ČSD Class E 458.0 locomotives redesigned to work from the 1500 V DC overhead wire electrification system. They are retained for use on line 202 from Tábor to Bechyně.
When delivered, the class E 426.0 locomotives ran at half the power of an E 458.0, reflecting the lower line voltage. During 1992, 113 002-0 was modified to allow parallel connection of the traction motors. This allowed operation at the full power rating (800 kW). Locomotives 113 001-2 and 113 003-8 were similarly modified. The remaining locomotive (113 004-6) has not been modified.
Similarly, as improvements were made to the locomotives (and their E 458.0/110 cousins), their maximum speed rating was improved from to . The line speed on the route to Bechyně is restricted to .
The two remaining locomotives (113 005-3 and 113 006-1) are now used as 3000 V DC system locomotives. During 2004, they were renumbered as 110 205-2 and 110 206-0 respectively.
