Seeking ID clarification

The Ebay seller posted a rather interesting shot of a
Luftwaffe A/A unit firing from a cargo train carriage
marked with a David Star probably assigned to carry
Jews to concentration camps and the wreck of a DB-3
or IL-4 bomber .

Question: was the star a Deutsche Reichsbahn a sort of a code
for weight or volumes or simply intended to mark human transport
carriages ?

On the second shot I was wondering if this was
RAF or Yugoslavian recon Blenheim ?

Re: Seeking ID clarification

There is a squadron code on the Blenheim, possibly UX. UX was the code for 82 Squadron RAF (Sep 1939 - Mar 1946) . The squadron flew Blenheim IVs from Aug 1939 to Mar 1942.
