No problem at all.
As I wrote to you, there were no massive deportations re trains except in
Oct/Nov 1941 and later in July 1942 to Transnistria.
Still, those having Popovici (not valid) authorizations, or those that
obtained valid authorizations to stay because of them being *necessary *
*for the war effort, *were in a continuous danger of being arrested and
sent away for work or to Tr. on an individual basis.
Few were sent to Tr. but many of the youth were recruited for labour camps
in Romania proper, the official explanation was that Jews were exempted
from the army
so that at least they might do some good, working in labor camps. But all
of those came back after serving time (some 6 months I think).
That might explain the lists your father spoke about. All young men able
to work (age 20 to 30) had to do *munc=C4=83 obligatorie. *They were taken =
there
and brought back by train. But those were not death trains.
There was no causal chain from the vicinity of the open Ghetto to the
railway station to the deportations or later to forced work. Whoever had to
go
came to the station by himself or *aided *by the police. And that from
everywhere inn town.
Everything in Cz. was known by the Jewish community what was called, lol,
the I.P.A. (Idische Plotke Agentur). There was also the I.W.A/ (Iden Willen
Azoi).

grain of truth. The first pessimistic the second optimistic.
I hope this helps.
Best Berti.
