Original captions: "Battle of the Bulge: Railroad yard near Limburg, Germany, struck by 9th Air Force light and medium bombers on Dec. 23, 1944, the first day of good weather during the Battle of the Bulge. Unfortunately, since the rail cars were not marked per the Geneva Convention, Allied POWs in transit sometimes lost their lives in rail attacks. (U.S. Air Force photo)"
Note that the additional info gives the following information: "Railyard near Limburg was rendered unserviceable as part of the tactical air plan to isolate enemy troops from their sources of supply and reinforcement. (2 May 1945)"
