I could have been on that train... or not.

I met this lady at the Kindertransport statue at Liverpool Street Station.

She was sitting in front of the statue and being filmed by her middle-aged son.

It took a while and I wonder she must have some horrific memories about the Holocaust and Kindertransport when she was a small girl.

Her gesture, sitting still in sunshine, her eyes kept looking at these metal children, and then gently touched the word 'Vienna' made me ask her, "Were you on that train?"

She replied, "I was lucky. I have a family here. But yes yes I could have been on that train... or not". Looking deep in her eyes, I feel the pain of an 80-year-old baby who had to unwillingly witness the most horrific event that left the scars to millions of people.

And the last words she said to me was, 'Thank you'.
