The Zvolen - Jesenske line is the western section of a long diesel worked secondary route that runs from west to east across southern Slovakia. Until recently most passenger trains were loco hauled by Class 750 or 754 diesels and there were a few freights as well. The line is quite scenic in places.
An infrequent service of fast passenger trains ran from Zvolen to Kosice via Jesenske, hauled by Class 754 diesels. There was also a reasonable local passenger service from Zvolen to Lucenec and Filakovo with many trains loco hauled by class 750 or 754 diesels. East of Filakovo, local services were sparse and consisted of occasional 4-wheel railbuses.
Freights were infrequent but could be hauled by some unusual classes in the early 2000s.
