The business area was before the Second World War rental and purchase of locomotives, tenders, motor vehicles, railway and tram cars, tankers, tank farms and the like, as well as tank farm. At its founding in 1899, this was a new business field in Germany . Today (as of 2010), this is done without locomotives, tender, motor and tram cars. Tank wagons with the EVA logo are still to be found on European railways since they were not repainted after their acquisition by VTG in 2002.
