Dutch tram company tried to collect money until 1947 for the deportation of 50,000 Jews, including Anne Frank and her family. The detainees were taken by public transport to the train stations to be sent to death in the Nazi camps.

A book and a documentary now reveal the role of the municipal company, which did not apologize or offer compensation to the survivors or their families. Between July 1942 and September 1944, an estimated 63,000 of Amsterdam's 77,000Jews were deported. Of these, almost 58,000 were murdered.
