The city of Wałbrzych is experiencing a gold rush after two men claimed that they had found a Nazi train containing gold looted from Jews that went missing in spring, 1945.
Scores of treasure hunters this week descended on the hills surrounding Wałbrzych, in south-west Poland, after the deputy culture minister, Piotr Zuchowski, said last week he had seen contours of the train on an image from a ground-penetrating radar device.
Mr Zuchowski said he was "99 per cent certain the train exists".
The hidden train was said to be located somewhere between the 61st and the 65th kilometre of the line between Wałbrzych and Wrocław.
