The Kastner train consisted of 35 cattle wagons that left Budapest on 30 June 1944, during the German occupation of Hungary, carrying over 1,600 Jews temporarily to Bergen-Belsen and safety in Switzerland after large ransom paid by Swiss Orthodox Jew , Recha Sternbuch's husband. The train was named after Rudolf Kastner (aka Kasztner), a Hungarian-Jewish lawyer and journalist, who was a founding member of the Budapest Aid and Rescue Committee, a group that smuggled Jews out of occupied Europe during the Holocaust. Kastner negotiated with Adolf Eichmann, the German SS officer in charge of deporting Hungary's Jews to Auschwitz in German-occupied Poland, to allow over 1,600 Jews to escape in exchange for gold, diamonds, and cash.

  • Il treno di Kastner è il nome dato ad un trasporto speciale di 1684 ebrei ungheresi, ai quali nel 1944, durante l'Olocausto, le autorità naziste consentirono di lasciare Budapest e di rifugiarsi in Svizzera, passando per il campo di concentramento di Bergen-Belsen. L'operazione fu il risultato di un accordo tra Adolf Eichmann e Rudolf Kasztner, rappresentante del Comitato per l’Aiuto ed il Soccorso degli ebrei ungheresi, in cambio del pagamento di una cospicua somma di denaro.

Vlak byl pojmenován po dr. Rudolfu Kastnerovi, maďarsko-židovském právníkovi a novináři, který v zastoupení Pomocného a záchranného výboru vyjednával s Adolfem Eichmannem o propuštění alespoň části maďarských Židů výměnou za zlato, diamanty a peníze.
