Update for anyone that cares - this shit is all over the news here every day...
The existence of the train has been confirmed by the county where it is. It was located using some kind of underground radar imaging. They said it will be several months before the train is excavated and we find out what is in it, because it is very likely surrounded by mines and booby-trapped, and the train itself may contain harmful chemicals. Other then that, World Jewish Congress claiming the treasure likely belongs to jews. Also possible that Russia may claim any treasure as theirs.
The 10% for the finders is secure either way - if no one can prove that the treasure belongs to them the treasure becomes the property of Poland, but regardless of who's it is they are legally entitled to that 10%. The 10% wouldn't just be on the value of treasure, it's on the value of the whole find which would include the train (which in itself weighs a shit-ton i'm sure, even in scrape metal value)...
