Class 207M is a prototype series of Polish light Diesel Multiple Units (a.k.a. railcars). Only six were made in following configurations:
By the end of the 1970s, steam traction in Poland was mostly retired. Non-electrified lines became operated with diesel locomotives. For short distance passenger traffic (mainly suburban trains) PKP was seeking a more economical solution than a heavy diesel locomotive pulling few cars. The obvious solution was the use of railcars. However, due to politics-related economical problems Poland was facing in 1980s, it wasn't until 1990 that the first cars were produced.
The class 207M was developed in ZNTK Poznań by a team led by Polish renowned rail transport engineer Ryszard Suwalski. The concept prospected trains from one up to four cars in consist. Only 2- and 3-car versions were made, three of each. Again, due to economical difficulties class 207M never went into serious production. After 2001 a larger contingent of railcars/DMUs went into production and they were based on newer projects than 207M. The last class 207M unit was retired in 2017.

EN81 is an electric motor coach produced by the Pesa plant in Bydgoszcz in 2005 and 2007. A total of 8 units were built, currently operated by Polregio in the Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship, and previously also in the Lesser Poland Voivodeship. The EN81 is intended for use on electrified regional routes to service routes with a small number of passengers, where operating multi-car electric multiple units would be uneconomical.
