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 Kentucky 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 Kentucky in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Navy blue knit scarf with brass pin

I lost my navy blue knit scarf yesterday around 3pm on Hazard's Main Street, near the old courthouse and the coffee shop by the bus stop. It's a medium-length scarf, soft acrylic, with a small brass compass pendant pinned near the corner and a tiny green snag along the left edge. The scarf has some pilling from daily wear and was a gift from my grandmother, so it feels sentimental and I really need it back. If anyone found it, please reach out — I’d be grateful and can meet up in Hazard to pick it up.

Gold-tone hoop earrings with emerald bead

I lost my gold-tone hoop earrings yesterday around 3pm near Hazard's public library on Main Street in Hazard, KY. They're about 1 inch hoops, with a tiny emerald-green bead dangling from the bottom of one hoop, and the other hoop has a small engraving inside that reads 'A.P.' They're from a local shop and mean a lot to me—they were a gift from my mom, who passed away last year. If anyone found them, please drop me a note here or contact me at [email protected]; I would really appreciate getting them back.

Black Samsonite suitcase with red tag and blue bandana

I lost my black Samsonite suitcase yesterday around 3pm near the Walmart on Lexington Road in London, KY. It's a medium-sized hard-shell bag with a few scratches on the front and a bright red luggage tag dangling from the handle. A blue bandana is tied to the zipper pulls, and one wheel is a bit wobbly from a curb bump. Inside are a few clothes, a gray hoodie, and a small travel journal with a green cover. This bag has sentimental value - it was a gift from my grandmother, and I'm really hoping to get it back. If you found it, please text or email me at [email protected].

It has a small dent on the bass hoop and a 'Northern Echo' sticker on the bass head. This drum set means a lot to me; if you found it, please get in touch.

Brown leather passport holder with RFID

I lost my brown leather passport holder with RFID blocking yesterday around 3pm near the Kroger on Main Street in Prestonsburg.

Inside are my passport, a boarding pass from a recent trip, and a small photo of my grandmother. It’s sentimental because it was a gift from her, and I really need it back to keep my travel plans from falling apart. If you found it, drop me a note and I’ll come pick it up as soon as I can.

Neon Joy-Con Nintendo Switch with dock

I lost my neon blue and neon red Nintendo Switch with the white dock yesterday around 3pm near the Kroger on Main Street in Pikeville, KY. It was tucked in a black protective case with a turquoise sticker that says P-4 on the cover, and the case has a small scratch on the zipper. The console itself is in good condition and the screen is pristine, but the right Joy-Con has a tiny dent near the rail. This Switch was a gift from my nephew, so it means a lot to me and I’m really hoping to get it back. If anyone found it, please reach out.
