Children sit tightly packed in an old bus shortly after disembarking from the ferry Prague in Harwich. It is 2 December 1938, weeks after the November pogroms that triggered the Kindertransport rescue effort. Among the roughly 200 children on this first transport were many orphans from a Jewish children's home in Berlin that had been ransacked during the pogroms. The bus was to carry them further inland, many first to a reception camp before foster families were found.
