Memorial of the train of Loos
#1

I went today to take some photos to the train of Loos memorial . It's around 15 min's of Lille where I live. on september 1,1944, approximately 900 political prisoners left the German prison of Loos to be off -set in the bagnes Nazis . 1/3 will return in spring 1945 . It is the tragedy of train of Loos . Never in this morning of September 1,1944, whereas the Allies are with the doors of Lille that the Resistant ones take the weapons to release the Metropolis, that the German railwaymen agree not to drive this train... Never the train of Loos should not have left . And yet, it will arrive the camps of death .
