On May 19, 1944, at the Westerbork transit camp, a glimpse of Sinti girl Settela Steinbach wearing a headscarf appears between the sliding doors of a cattle car awaiting deportation to Auschwitz.
In May 1945, her father, Moeselman Steinbach, wrote to “Repatriation” in the Netherlands: “...I very politely request you to inform me whether my wife and 10 children have arrived, or only children (Gypsy children) from the Auschwitz concentration camp in Poland.” Full post at https://settela.com/2026/05/19/genocide-20260519/

Today's historic photo of the day: Commonwealth Railways NDH class diesel hydraulic #railcar NDH2 sits in storage at Albury, NSW, June 11, 1983

Six NDH railcars were built for the Commonwealth Railways in 1954 by the Gloucester Railway Carriage and Wagon Company in the UK as subcontractors to Commonwealth Engineering. These railcars were powered by 6 cylinder Detroit series 71 diesel engines that delivered 105kW of power to a 1A-A1 wheel arrangement and, as delivered, ran on 1067mm narrow gauge

Today's historic photo of the day: Rail flaw detection vehicle SRS141 passes through Hawkesbury River, NSW, September 5 1983.

SRS141 was built in 1928 in St Louis (USA) as a passenger #railcar for the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Railroad. In 1972, it was converted by Sperry to provide rail flaw detection services to US railroads.

In 1973 it came to Australia, and roamed the NSW checking for rail flaws. It eventually returned to North America certainly by 2002, and is still in use over there
