The first two class 850 diesel-hydraulic railcars were built in 1962 but it was 1967 before another 50 were built. The similar Class 851 followed, with 37 built in 1968-69. They were intended for express passenger work but were relegated to more menial duties later. All ZSSK's had been withdrawn by 2007.

Classes 811, 812 and 813 are all rebuilds of the once ubiquitous Class 810 4-wheel railbuses or their Class 010 or 011 trailers. Class 810 is now extinct in Slovakia but over 100 of the rebuilds continue in service with ZSSK on rural and branch line services. A few 811s have been sold to Czech operators.

A total of 238 Class 830 diesel-electric railcars were built from 1949 to 1960 for main line services. They were later displaced to less important duties but some survived in Slovakia until 2006, working local passenger services on secondary routes and branch lines in the north of the country.
