Transport 14g/Ez1 from Wien, Vienna, Austria to Theresienstadt, Ghetto, Czechoslovakia on 27/04/1943

The transport left Vienna’s Nordbahnhof (northern railway station) on April 27, 1943 and arrived in Theresienstadt on April 28. It consisted of two Jews. Apparently they were put on a regular passenger train that left daily from Nordbahnhof (Northern Railway Station) and travelled via Breclav (Lundenburg) to Brno (Brünn). In Brno they were transferred to a train run by the "Protektoratsbahnen" (the company that operated trains in the so called "Protektorat"). They continued their journey to Prague (Praha) and from there to Bohusovice (Bauschowitz). At the station in Bohusovice, the Jews were taken off the train and forced to walk about three kilometers to Theresienstadt. On its arrival, this transport was listed in the ghetto records as IV/14g Ez; the Roman numeral IV represented Vienna as city of origin. At the end of World War II, around 5,000 Jews remained in Vienna.
