It was approximately 25 feet long and 10 feet wide. The interior height was about 9 feet. For comparison it probably had a volume of less than half that of the large box cars seen on rail lines today. The gross volume was rather like a good size recreational vehicle. Up to and often more than 100 persons (most commonly Jews) were crammed into a single car.
SS regulations called for 50 people per car, but often as many as 150 people were crammed into the cars. They were not provided with food and water and only had a bucket for waste. Ventilation came only from small windows and as a result of these condition many people died before reaching the concentration camps.
Depends how long the train is!
9 and a quater
the people were generally under orders, but some asked for specific postings, if you mean the mode of transport, then: train (mostly), some higher ranking officers would get there by car.
The Holocaust trains were railway transports run by German Nazis and their collaborators to forcibly deport interned Jews and other victims of the Holocaust to the German Nazi concentration and extermination camps.
Because people had to pay money to go on the trains when they could be spending money on food or water instead of going on the train
Their was hundreds of concentration camps and Jews wasn't sent to them from just Poland and Germany, slovakia, hungary, french and Austrian Jews was sent to them but i give you a example from Berlin to Auschwitz consecration camp is 490km - prime example longest train ride during the holocaust was from France natzweiker to Latvia kieserwald is 1119 miles but the people sent by trains do not all arrive in same destonation, some Jews and other sub humans are sent to other concentration camps along the way. so time and speed varies on route,some could take several hours but some take a day or 2
to train
it depends on how many carriages the train had: clearly a train with one carriage could transport less people than a train with forty carriages. Also the type of carriage made a difference. Deportations could transport up to four thousand at a time.
During the Holocaust, Jewish people were put into boxcars, or train cars, to be transported to concentration camps. Many died of suffocation before even getting to the destination.
Depends where they came from..
Wiesel points out the countryside outside the train to emphasize the contrast between the normalcy of nature and the horror of their situation in the train. It serves as a poignant reminder of the beauty and freedom they are being deprived of, highlighting the sense of loss and despair experienced during the Holocaust.

because if you do not train for some jobs you could hurt yourself or other people.

Train
They could drive, take a train trip, or a cruise.
During the Holocaust Jews could only have what fit in their pockets at the cocentration camps._________________As the Holocaust was in so many different times and places, there are many different parts to the answer:In the ghettos it depended where they would travel from, if they came by their own power and before the ghetto was closed they could take whatever they wanted, in other cases if they came by train they were limited to 50kg. There were also other regulations and limitations like only what they could carry or 30kg.In the camps they had to surrender all personal possessions, but were given uniforms which if they lost any part of they would have been responsible.
