In the Netherlands, Connexxion operates Protos trains built by this company on the Valleilijn.

Since December 2008, Fahrzeugtechnik Dessau had been owned by the Romanian Compania de Transport Feroviar Bucuresti S.A. (CTF).

By early 2019, the company employed a staff of 75 in Dessau, with sales revenues of about five million Euro in 2018.

A handover to interested successors failed, forcing Molinari Rail to announce the closure of the company.

Most of the staff were dismissed in March 2023, with a skeleton crew remaining for a few months for clean-up tasks.
