In the transport, it can sometimes be up in the air. Forget a bag, a part of its business, or dropping his wallet on the seat. But, in Switzerland, a passenger of the rail has left behind him... 3 kilos of gold. Eight months later, authorities are still trying to identify the dizzy, explains the BBC. Failing to achieve this, they have decided to officially communicate on this matter.
This is the month of last October that more than 3 kilograms of gold were forgotten in the car of a train making the journey between St Gallen and Lucerne, two cities located in the east of the country. At the end of this trip, which lasts from 2 hours to 2: 30 p.m., a passenger has left behind him gold, for a value estimated at approximately 170 000 euros. In recent months, the swiss authorities tried to find the owner without success. This is the face of this failure they decided to communicate publicly on the subject, hoping to have more of a chance. The passenger who has forgotten the gold must be known within a period of up to five years. It is unclear, however, how the authorities will be able to confirm that he is the owner of this treasure.
