The history of the rail transport in Slovakia began on 21 September 1840, with the opening of the first line from Bratislava to Svätý Jur (at that time in Kingdom of Hungary, horse-powered) and on 20 August 1848 (line to Vienna, steam-powered). The Železnice Slovenskej republiky company was established in 1993 as a successor of the Československé státní drahy in Slovakia as its mentioned in Slovakia rail map. Until 1996 it had formal and since then de-facto monopoly on railroad transportation in the country. Since 2002 a law divided the company: ŽSR was left with infrastructure maintenance and passenger and cargo transport was moved into company "Železničná spoločnosť, a. s." (ZSSK). In 2005 this new company was further split into "Železničná spoločnosť Slovensko, a. s." (ZSSK) providing Passenger transport services and "Železničná spoločnosť Cargo Slovakia, a. s." (ZSSK Cargo) providing cargo services.
