The picture is made in Macedonian Holocaust Memorial museum in Skopje.
The BDZ (БДЖ) logo on the wagon claims that the wagon originates from Bulgaria and Bulgarian National Railroads (DBZ).
Why it is not Bulgarian:
1. The БДЖ logo was created in 1964 and it was not existing in 1943. The museum replaced it after realizing the mistake with a "БДЖ" later on.
2. Further inspection of the wagon can give you more information: The wheel - axis joint has a cap, half broken, but you can see there is inscription JD. It is possible that a third symbol Z is missing, and the inscription is JDZ - Yugoslav National Railroads. Again - it is not 100% but for sure it is not Bulgarian.
3. There were only German trains used for deportation from Skopje to death camps.
This falsification tends to inspire anti-Bulgarian atmosphere among Macedonian population.
