I realize this isn't football related, and with the season tantalizing close. Just found this interesting! Maybe some of you will also?

Officials in Walbrzych, Poland confirm a mysterious Nazi train has been found, but don't know what it contains.
Last week, a pair of anonymous treasure hunters approached officials in Walbrzych, Poland via their lawyer to claim they had found an old Nazi loot train. Now officials have confirmed that the pair certainly found a train. Whether it's full of gold remains to be seen.
As NBC News reports, a press officer confirmed that a military train had been found and the town's deputy mayor Zygmunt Nowaczyk made the following statement at a press conference:
The city [of Walbrzych] is full of mysterious stories because of its history. Now it is formal information — [we] have found something.
There have been legends of a lost Nazi train in Walbrzych for years, and now it appears they are true. A tour guide at a local castle told NBC News that Nazis had dug myriad secret tunnels in the area during World War II as part of a project to turn that castle into a hotel for high ranking Nazi officials. It's unproven but plausible that these tunnels were used as a impromptu train-hiding spot.
