The HZ series 1061 was a six-axle articulated electric locomotive used by Croatian Railways, known in Slovenia as series 362 and in Yugoslavia as JŽ series 362. Ansaldo and Breda of Genoa built the first fleet of electric locomotives for the 3,000 V DC network in the north of Yugoslavia, and the design was based on the Italian FS Class E.646 while looking much like the older E.636. The first 35 were delivered between 1960 and 1964, five more in 1966 and 1967, and a final ten of a slightly longer design in 1968. They were designed to climb well and worked the steeply graded line from Rijeka via Moravice to Zagreb. Three were later rebuilt with new cabs and one with thyristor control. The Croatian locomotives were withdrawn in December 2012.
