Lost something on public transport?

How to track down an item left on a bus, train, tram, or taxi by contacting the right transport operator.

Items left on buses, trains, trams, and taxis around Bowling Green are usually handed in to the operator's lost property team — the trick is contacting the right one quickly.

  1. Identify the operator. Note the route, line, or company and the rough time. Each operator runs its own lost property process.
  2. Submit a lost property report. Use the operator's online form or phone line as soon as possible; recovered items are logged against your description.
  3. For taxis and rideshare, contact the driver or company directly through your booking or app receipt.
  4. Keep your reference. Save any report number so you can chase it up.
  5. Post a listing. Add a listing for Bowling Green in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost sports equipment in Bowling Green

I was at Fountain Square Park in downtown Bowling Green around 4:45 PM, tossing a ball with a friend near the basketball court and chatting by the benches. I must have left my gear—a blue duffel bag containing a basketball, a tennis racket, and a pair of neon running shoes—behind the bench near the park entrance. The items are for our weekend scrimmages and practice with a couple of teammates, so they’re not easily replaceable. I’m anxious because the gear belongs to different people and we’re counting on it for upcoming games, and I keep replaying the moment I realized they were gone.

Lost: sheet music near Capitol Arts Center, Bowling Green

Last Tuesday evening, around 7:45 p.m., I left my sheet music on a chair in the Capitol Arts Center lobby on Main Street after rehearsal with my band in Bowling Green. It's a blue binder with my initials 'EM' on the cover, and the pages are a bit coffee-stained from a long day of practice. I wandered the nearby blocks, checking the backstage area and the café across the street, but I came up empty, so I'm hoping someone found it and kept it safe. Losing it feels personal—these songs are my go-to for the recital next month, and finding them would mean more than relief; it would mean keeping a piece of my music intact.

Lost travel visas near Fountain Square Park

Hi, I’m Emily Carter. I was rushing to a late visa appointment when I realized my travel visas were missing. I last had them at about 5:30 PM last Friday, after I grabbed coffee near Fountain Square Park in downtown Bowling Green. It feels surreal to think of how something so small carries so much, and I am anxious about the trip details slipping away. I’m hoping someone picked them up and kept them safe in the bustle of the square.

lost Student ID near Fountain Square Park

Hi, I'm Maya Collins. I must have dropped my student ID around 4:15 p.m. on Tuesday near Fountain Square Park as I was walking from Western Kentucky University toward State Street. I retraced my steps along University Blvd and Center Street, but the card vanished. The badge shows my name and photo, plus a small purple WKU sticker I got during orientation. This ID is essential for campus access, meals, and library checkout, and losing it has me anxious about getting back into my routine. If someone found it, please know it's mine and I hope to recover it soon.

Black 13-inch MacBook Pro with blue mountain sticker

Yesterday around 3pm I lost my black 13-inch MacBook Pro with a blue mountain sticker on the lid. It's in a gray silicone case and has a small dent on the bottom-left corner from a minor spill last year. I think I left it on a table in the Bowling Green Public Library cafe area on East Main Street, near Circus Square Park, after finishing a quick reference check before catching the bus. It's my main work laptop and it holds all my class notes and current internship projects, so I’m really hoping it turns up soon. If you found it, I’d be grateful to arrange a safe drop-off or meetup nearby; you can email me at [email protected].
