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 Decatur 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 Decatur in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost action figures from my collection, Decatur.

I lost my action figures in Decatur, Illinois, United States around 7:15 p.m. last Friday while I was tidying up the living room of my apartment on North Water Street. The tote held eight figures, including a dented red Iron Man, a green army figure with a cracked badge, and a vintage Spider-Man that squeaks when you press his chest. They mean a lot to me—several were gifts from my dad and a swap-meet find from years ago. If anyone has seen them or moved them, I’d be grateful to hear from you through the site.

LOST: Keyboards in Decatur

I lost two keyboards this morning around 9:20 a.m. near Decatur Square, by the Macon County Courthouse on North Main Street in Decatur, Illinois. One is a black 88-key digital piano-style keyboard, the other a compact MIDI keyboard with a blue edge LED. They’re crucial for my gigs and practice, and they carry sentimental weight—my late grandfather taught me to play, and those keys helped me learn. If someone happened to pick them up or saw them around the square, I’d be grateful for any information.

Lost sandals near Decatur Public Library

Last Tuesday around 8:15 p.m., I was walking from the Decatur Public Library on East North Street toward Main Street after grabbing a slice of pizza at a little spot by Rotary Park. My tan sandals slipped off as I stepped onto a curb by a small fountain. I didn’t realize they were gone until I reached home, and now my feet are sore. They’re the most comfortable pair I own, and I’m hopeful someone picked them up and kept them safe. I’m not sure what else to say—just really hoping to find them.

lost medication downtown Decatur

Hi, I’m Jamie Park, and I lost my medication this morning. I left a small brown bottle with a blue cap on a table outside the cafe near the Decatur Public Library around 9:30 a.m. today. The meds are essential for my daily routine, and I’m anxious about taking the wrong dose or skipping a day. If someone found it, I’d be grateful to know it’s safe.

Lost drone near Decatur Public Library

Hi, I’m Emily Carter. I was flying my drone near the Decatur Public Library around 7:15 PM last Friday, and a gust swept it toward the Macon County Courthouse lawn, then it vanished behind a row of oaks by the riverfront. I retraced my steps for an hour, but the drone is gone and I can't shake the image of it slipping away into the dusk. This wasn't just a toy— it was my latest personal project for the town film club, and I’m crushed at its loss. If anyone spotted something metallic glinting near the library or along the riverfront, please let me know through the site.

Lost radios near Lincoln Square, Decatur

I was at Lincoln Square, Decatur, around 5:45 p.m. Friday when I realized my radios were missing from my backpack. They’re two handheld radios in a gray pouch, one with a black case and a bright red strap. I’d left them on a bench outside the Decatur Public Library on North Water Street while I checked a map, and by the time I turned back they were gone. They’re important for work and for keeping in touch during weekend events, and I’ve never wanted them more than now. I’m posting this here in case someone turned them in.
