TRANSPORTS

 

The SS contracted the “fare” for transporting the Jews to their death with the German railroad authorities: children up to 10 years of age traveled half the regular fare: those under 4 years traveled free with their parents. The SS paid for their transportation from the funds robed from their victims.

From the end of July to the beginning of October 1942 the railroad was on repair and alternative forms of transports were found: Trucks, horse drawn wagons, even forcing the Jews from local villages and towns to come by foot. Later the railroad transport resumed bringing Jews from Holland, France, the Soviet Union and other countries.

In the Hagen court proceedings against former Sobibor Nazis, Prof. Wolfgang Scheffler, who served as a expert, estimated the total figure of murdered Jews at 2.500 minimum.
