People in boxcars suffocated, were trampled, had heart attacks, suffered from being crushed to death. This answer is from a man I met when I was a child and he told me of his experience being taken from his home and transported to Dachau prison camp via boxcar. They also died due to extreme cold or extreme heat. The boxcars could get very hot and the Germans did not give them water. The vents were at the top of the box car so many were overcome by the heat.
