No Nazi Train Filled With Gold, Experts Say

No Nazi Train Filled With Gold, Experts Say Last summer, officials in Poland thought they had located a long-lost Nazi train that, as legend had it, was filled with gold and hidden in an underground tunnel. As we reported in August, "Poland's Deputy Culture Minister Piotr Zuchowski said authorities were led to a spot by an unnamed individual and that images obtained from ground-penetrating radar left him '99 percent convinced' that the treasure train has been located." Piotr Koper and Andreas Richter, the two men who claimed to have located the train in Walbrzych, Poland, a small town near the country's southwest border with Germany and the Czech Republic, say otherwise. The Guardian reports that one thing that has kept rumors of the gold train alive is that "Hitler had established a secret command centre linked by tunnels to the Owl Mountains south-east of the city."
