Members of the opposition movement in Albania, at the same time illegal immigrants, also took part. A year of broad public mobilization took place throughout France for this Free Train. The concept was also taken up in the Netherlands and in Great Britain where mobilization also took place for Free Trains to Cologne. We would like to take up the idea of a Free Train this coming autumn because it questions the European domestic and international borders in a practical, if not at least symbolic way. The Free Train Concept ignores the exclusion of people on account of their nationality.
Free Trains are a practical aspect of anti-racism.
In this way, the principle of free access to societal riches for all is placed above the principle of capitalist profit. A broad mobilization is important. We would like to spread the demand for a Free Train with a campaign while at the same time increasing the consciousness for the changing social conditions and opposition in Europe. We hope that this has sparked your interest and are thankful for any comments, criticism, and suggestions you may have. July 7th 2000.
