And it had reptile company on the locomotive, as another snake was also then discovered.
'And then we found another snake - but this one was still in a carry box,' Mr Nojman said.
The reptiles were meant to be delivered to an address in Nowy Sacz, but have been taken to a local veterinary practice.
'Both snakes were unharmed and we are looking into the whole affair,' the police representative added.
