The trains began to leave Prague in 1939 as Nazi Germany prepared for more aggressive territorial expansion.

However, Nicholas Winton did manager to evacuate almost 700 children to Britain.

When Nazi Germany invaded Poland on September 1st 1939, Britain declared war. In Prague another of Nicholas Winton’s trains was full and preparing to leave the station, when Nazi soldiers boarded the train, it is most likely that the children on board were sent to a concentration camp. As the Second World War had begun, there was nothing further that Nicholas Winton could do for the Jewish children of Czechoslovakia.
After spending a couple of months in Prague, Winton returned to London to organise matters from there, with a small team of volunteers remaining in Czechoslovakia. Winton arranged the huge amount of paperwork necessary for the children’s travel, obtained permission from the Home Office to admit the refugees and found foster families to care for them when they arrived.
Although Britain and its allies attempted to pursue a policy of appeasement with Nazi Germany, war was appearing to be unavoidable. As the talk and threat of war in Germany increased, so did the anti-Semitism, particularly after Kristallnacht which with its brutality, destruction and violence, shocked Western Europe. In Germany and Austria, groups, such as the Committee for the Care of Children from Germany, began to organise evacuating Jewish children to Britain. Here they were placed with families,Nike Dunk, or sponsored to attend a boarding school, some had relatives in the USA and would travel on to live with them.
