Nicholas Winton with Tal Cohain, whose grandmother Hanna Slome was rescued by Winton’s Kindertransports.
From the Jerusalem Post, article on the Winton train: It took 70 years for this reunion, but when the vintage steam train pulled into London with a group of elderly Holocaust survivors, the emotions started to flow. The three-day trip from Prague – by rail and ferry – recreated the fateful journey the survivors made as children, part of the “kindertransports” organized by Winton that carried 669 mostly Jewish children to safety in England.
