In my opinion, this is the most interesting story in the world right now that most people aren't discussing. This is real life Indiana Jones stuff, but FAR more exciting.

Experts will next week begin inspecting the site in the southwestern Polish city of Walbrzych where a Nazi train that could contain looted treasure is allegedly buried, the city said Thursday.
A first group of experts, including the two men who claimed to have found the armoured Nazi train, will likely start their non-invasive search early next week, according to municipal spokesman Arkadiusz Grudzien.
A second group from the Mining Academy in Krakow will follow suit, he said.
"The experts will be able to use different measuring equipment and detectors but are not allowed to touch the ground," Grudzien told AFP.
"They won't be able to dig, or drill or introduce cameras into the ground. They're only allowed to perform a non-invasive search."

Treasure hunters Piotr Koper of Poland and Andreas Richter, a German, announced in August they had discovered a 98-metre-long (320-foot-long) train carriage buried eight to nine metres underground in a railway tunnel.
They believe the contents are mostly weapons prototypes, though according to local legend they could also include artwork and Nazi documents.
Deputy Culture Minister Piotr Zuchowski said in August he was "more than 99 percent sure" the train exists after seeing ground-penetrating radar images.

Rumours of two Nazi trains that disappeared at the end of World War II have been circulating for years, capturing the imagination of treasure-hunters.
The lore is fuelled by a massive network of secret underground tunnels near Walbrzych -- including around the massive Ksiaz Castle -- that Nazi Germany built and where legend has it the Third Reich stashed looted valuables.

I don't know what they think they're going to find through these non invasive methods. I also don't see how they could determine that there's a rail car inside a tunnel 30 ft below the surface simply by using GPR

I predict that they find the lost Amber Room.

NO! My tunnel isn't finished yet!

Upvote for bringing this to the OT.
Bad news is you own it now and are obligated to regular updates. Be the man and follow this to the end. Quality work.

Germans!
When this was first announced earlier this year, I seem to recall that someone here posted something snarky about being able to easily handle a train in a fellow-poster's private tunnel of love.
As I recall, this situation ended badly.

I hope they find the Amber Room

Too bad there won't be a live broadcast while they examine the site.

They can see what's under the ground using satellites in space, I think the technology available today is more than sufficient to give a pretty good idea of what's 30' underground.

Even if all they find are weapon prototypes, it could wind up still being a very interesting discovery...some hydra shite maybe
