The Wehrmacht was the unified armed forces of Germany from 1935 to 1945. With the outbreak of World War 2 there was a sudden rise in demand for railroad cars, the freight cars were used by the German Army for the transportation of Military equipment & goods. During World War II, the Deutsche Reichsbahn (German State Railway) was an essential part of German military logistics, it provided essential transportation services throughout Europe. The Deutsche Reichsbahn was paid to transport Jews & other Holocaust victims from thousands of towns & cities throughout Europe to the Nazi concentration camps using Holocaust trains. Between 1942 to the end of summer 1944, trains arrived frequently at Auschwitz-Birkenau transporting Jews from virtually every country in Europe occupied by or allied to Nazi Germany. Many Holocaust victims were crammed into goods cars for their journey to the Nazi concentration camps. These prisoner transports arrived from 1942 to the end of summer 1944. After World War II ended the goods cars were scattered all over Europe & were used by many different railway companies for a long period, including the DB & the OBB up until the 1980's. Oppeln/Opole is a city in southern Poland, today many German Upper Silesians & Poles of German ancestry live in the Opole region, Germans make up less than 3% of population of the City of Oppeln itself. In 1941, the Province of Silesia divided into the Provinces of Upper and Lower Silesia; Kattowitz was made the capital of Upper Silesia instead of the smaller town of Oppeln - Opole.
