Two treasure hunters claiming to have discovered a Nazi "gold train" went public today for the first time but failed to reveal evidence for the alleged find they insist is "irrefutable".

The men, who identified themselves as Piotr Koper, a Pole, and German national Andreas Richter, told Poland's TVP public broadcaster they would only communicate via their lawyers from now on.

Authorities in Poland's southwestern province of Lower Silesia where the armoured train is allegedly buried cast doubt on its existence earlier this week insisting there was no credible evidence for it.

The Polish military has since deployed technicians to check the area in question. 

"We have irrefutable evidence it exists," Koper told TVP Friday, adding that "we aren't responsible for the media circus surrounding the train."
