The Winton Train was a private passenger train that travelled from the Czech Republic to Great Britain in September 2009 in tribute to the wartime efforts of Sir Nicholas Winton, described as the 'British Schindler' for his part in saving refugee children from Czechoslovakia. As a result of Sir Nicholas' efforts in the months leading up to the outbreak of World War II in 1939, a total of seven locomotives transported 669 Czechoslovak children of mainly Jewish heritage from Prague to safety in Great Britain.

  • Winton Train (česky Wintonův vlak) byl speciální historický vlak vypravený 1. září 2009 z pražského hlavního nádraží, který dojel 4. září 2009 na nádraží v Londýně. Jízda byla připomínkou 70. výročí činu sira Nicholase Wintona, který v roce 1939 odvezl z protektorátu Čechy a Morava do Londýna 669 převážně židovských dětí, aby je tak uchránil před nacistickým režimem. Poslední, nejpočetnější a nacisty nepovolený transport měl vyjet právě 1. září 1939. (cs)
