Departure day at Lichtenau train station (13 July 1924)
Part of Gerhard Lohrenz fonds
This photo shows departure day scene at the Lichtenau train station. The train is in the background against the horizon; a crowd has gathered to bid the emigrants farewell; an empty wagon is seen in the foreground with several boys sitting on the wagon side rail. This photo is a slightly different photo than the one published in Gerhard Lohenz's Heritage Remembered ( HR 261).
