The Warsaw railway station was converted into a scene of exotic Jewish dances today when the famous Sochaczewer rebbe, the “miracle rebbe” of Poland, left for Palestine.

Thousands of Chassidim, the followers of the rebbe, came to the station to see him off and performed religious Chassidic dances at the station before the train pulled out.
