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 Eastern CT 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 Eastern CT in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost travel bags near Mohegan Sun, Uncasville

Friday around 7:30 p.m., I lost my travel bags as I stepped out of the Mohegan Sun entrance in Uncasville, in Eastern CT, Connecticut, United States. I’d just wrapped a conference, grabbed a quick bite, and must've set the bags down briefly. They’re a large gray rolling suitcase and a smaller navy carry-on with a bright red tag. Inside are my clothes for an upcoming trip and a few personal items from the conference. I’m anxious and a little scattered, hoping someone picked them up or saw them nearby. Please let me know through the site if you’ve seen them.

Lost: Handheld and Console in Eastern CT

I’m Avery from Norwich, in Eastern Connecticut. I was leaving the Norwich Public Library parking lot on Main Street around 8:15 PM last Friday when my handheld device and its console slipped from my bag and vanished into the crowd. I retraced my steps along Main Street and through the parking area near the river, but the night was fast and the streetlights flickered, and I couldn’t find it. That device held cherished photos and a few personal games, so it means a lot to me.

Lost travel adapters near Mystic Seaport

I was packing for a weekend trip and tucked my travel adapters into the side pocket of my backpack. At about 6:15 p.m. on Saturday, I realized they weren't in the bag as I stood near the Mystic Seaport gift shop. I retraced my steps along the boardwalk and checked the bench by the ticket booth, but they were gone. The adapters are small, with a black body and a blue USB port—the kind I rely on when traveling for work. I'm anxious because without them I can't charge my devices on the road.

Lost swimsuits at Ocean Beach Park

I lost my swimsuits last Saturday around 7:15 pm at Ocean Beach Park in New London, CT. The water had a jade shimmer as the sun sank, and the gulls cried over the pier. I had just finished a late dip and left my towel and bag on a chair near the lifeguard stand by the main entrance. When I looked back, the swimsuits were gone. The cobalt-blue two-piece has a small tear on the left hip that I stitched myself. I'm anxious and hopeful—these suits aren’t easy to replace, and they carry memories of a family trip. If you spotted them near the snack shack or along the boardwalk, please let me know through the site.

Lost wrist watches outside East Lyme Public Library

Hi, I'm Mia Delgado. Yesterday around 7:15 pm, I realized my Wrist Watches were LOST outside the East Lyme Public Library after a quick stroll along Main Street. The two watches, one silver with a leather strap and one black with a thin steel band, are meaningful to me—a family keepsake from my grandmother. I’m holding onto hope someone found them and left them somewhere safe. If you came across them, please drop them at the library so I can reclaim them.

lost dresses after mall event in Eastern CT

Hi, I’m Nora Flynn from Eastern CT, and I can’t find my dresses after a charity fashion sale at Crystal Mall in Waterford. At 3:15 p.m. Sunday, I left a tote containing two dresses near the main entrance by Macy’s, and when I returned, the tote was gone. They include a light blue bridesmaid dress and a black cocktail dress, both with delicate lace. This is for a friend’s wedding next month, and I’m anxious about replacements. If you happened to spot anything matching those items near the Crystal Mall food court, please help.
