He claims to have located the gold train. "The most mysterious figure"

The topic surrounding the so-called "golden train" continues unabated. A group of searchers claims the train is located in Wałbrzych (Lower Silesia). Years ago, it was supposedly hidden in a tunnel leading towards the 13th-14th-century Książ Castle. The enthusiasts, who claim there are three wagons inside – which they were able to determine, among other things, through dowsing tests, more on which below – have already obtained permission from the State Forests to carry out the first phase of work. This includes "inspecting the area with metal detectors to remove any metal objects from the research area."

Exactly, but what about dowsing? In the academic community, this method is considered pseudoscientific. According to the head of the search group, however, it's simply "physics." "It is merely unrecognized and undescribed because the study of the phenomenon itself is difficult," "M" explained in a Facebook post. "Besides extensive theoretical knowledge of physics and mathematics, it also requires certain outstanding mental, analytical, and psychological predispositions from the dowser, eliminating suggestions, clearing the mind, and focusing. Many factors influence a true, real reading," he explained in a mid-July post.

A renowned journalist met with the mysterious head of the "Golden Train 2025" project. He showed her the exact location of the train cars.

A few days ago, journalist Joanna Lamparska met with "M" – as this is how the mysterious explorer currently signs off on his social media posts. She is also a traveler and writer. She has written a book about the golden train, "A Short History of Madness," published in 2016 by Burda Publishing Polska. Lamparska was the first to publish a photograph of the group's leader – he agreed to it, but on the condition that the image be concealed, which is why we only see the back of the man's head. The journalist and M. went to the buffer zone of the Książ Landscape Park – this is where, according to information posted on social media by the explorers, the golden train is located.

"M. is currently the most mysterious figure in Polish searches – the man who reported the location of the gold train. He showed me the location he had selected. Let me remind you that Mr. M. still wishes to remain anonymous. (...) He is certain of his discovery and claims that there are three wagons in the tunnel (and not with the known bars), not a gold train. He identified the hiding place using dowsing methods," Lamparska recalled in a post from August 17.

The writer also addressed what many internet users and scientists consider a controversial method. "Perhaps (...) M.'s new report will be an interesting verification of dowsing methods in searches," she stated.
