When the Nazis decided Auschwitz would serve as the focal point for
the extermination of Jews and various other groups, they were faced
with the logistics of transporting millions of people to southern
Poland, some from as far away as the Netherlands, France, Italy, and
Greece. Transportation was done by railroad, typically in cattle cars,
but occasionally in passenger trains, in which wealthy Jews were
encouraged to bring as much of their wealth with them as possible.
A typical journey is described in the book Perfidy, written by Ben
Hecht and compiled from transcripts of the trial of Rudolf Kastner, a
Hungarian Jew tried for collaboration with the Nazis in Hungary:
The Jews are deported to Auschwitz daily, on schedule. They leave from
the ghetto embarkation depots, on schedule. Conductors signal, "All
aboard." Brakemen wave lanterns. German and Hungarian guards shoot a
few reluctant travelers, club and bayonet a last group of mothers into
the compartments. The engineer opens his throttle. And the train is
off for Auschwitz, on schedule.
Eighty Jews ride in every compartment. Eichmann [said] the Germans
could do better where there were more children. Then they could jam
120 into each train room. But 80 is no reflection on German
efficiency.
The 80 Jews must stand all the way to Auschwitz with their hands
raised in the air, so as to make room for the maximum of passengers.
There are two buckets in each compartment. One contains water. The
other is for use as a toilet, to be shoved by foot, if possible, from
user to user.
I wonder here, why the water and toilet buckets? One water bucket, one
toilet bucket for 80 despairing men, women and children plastered
against each other as in a packing case, and riding to death. Why? One
water bucket, one toilet bucket are not enough to relieve the misery
of these barely living ones. Jammed together, how can they use any
buckets? They must urinate and defecate in their clothes. They must
continue to burn with thirst until they arrive at the gas ovens. But
the buckets are there.
These transports typically took four days to reach Auschwitz. One
infamous transport from the Greek island of Corfu took 18 days. Upon
arrival, all of its inhabitants were dead.

The jews telling this story are a bunch of whiners. Tell them to try
riding the NYC subway on a raining or snowing evening during rush
hour. They'll learn quick what a real, over-crowded train ride is.
