Lying dormant for over half a century an absolutely enormous train station built in the classic French style lies hidden deep in the Pyrenees on the border of France and Spain.  But this ghost station hides a very dark secret dating back to the Nazis.

The secret was uncovered by by chance by a Coach driver called Jonathan Diaz.  While on a break he went into the station and began to look around. Seeing a pile of aged paper in a corner of a decaying customs house he flicked through them. He stopped when he saw the words 'gold bars'.

Though he didn't know it at the time, he had uncovered a secret which had lain hidden since WWII. Canfranc, as the station is known, was well known to those involved in espionage in the past and in the present. There are those who wanted that secret to remain with the ghosts for a very good reason.

The station had been the haunt of spies, escaping Jews, Nazis and fascists and members of the resistance. It's dark past had not been mentioned in any of the history books ...but it was there, waiting to be revealed

US President Bill Clinton declassified documents which began to peal back an ugly truth which linked in with the discovery by Jonathan Diaz.

Unknown to the world 86 tons of Nazi gold had passed through the station during the war. It was heading to fascist General Franco in Spain. 

Why? 

It was payment for masses of tungsten which was required for the German war effort.

Though the allies tried to return to its rightful owners, the gold stolen by the Nazis, the Spanish government  of the time returned very little.

The discovery by a coach driver on his break has created a furore which embroils many states and creates intense embarrassment.
