Avteq was founded in 2002 by Jed Macartney and Rob Powell as an aviation consulting business. In 2005 it diversified into locomotive manufacturing, producing 12 VL class locomotives for Chicago Freight Car Leasing Australia from a factory in Sunshine.
Avteq designed a second locomotive class, but none were ever manufactured. The company was deregistered in 2013.
