Correct or not? About the Nazi train found in Poland.
Dear Users,
Could you tell me if this part of the conversation I had with a friend of mine is correct? These are the sentences I uttered:
I don't know if you've seen or heard of the recent development regarding the Nazi train found in Poland. Looks like it's really happening, and looks like a deep ground radar showed picures of something that the officials are sure about that it is a train.
I'm particularly doubtful about the highlighted parts:
1) seen and heard of together in one sentence
2) deep ground radar
3) the overall structure of this sentence: that the officials are sure about that it is a train
4) I don't know if I should refer to that train as a train or the train
Thank you

I don't know if you've seen or heard of (OK) the recent development regarding the **** train found in Poland. Looks like it's really happening, and looks like a deep ground radar showed pic t ures of a radar scan of the deep underground showed something that the officials are sure about that it is a train . That's my version.

Perfect Stranger1) seen and heard of together in one sentenceThat's fine.
Perfect Stranger2) deep ground radarThis is unnatural. Ground-penetrating radar is more natural, as the first line of the article here http://www.b
