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 Lincoln 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 Lincoln in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

LOST: Enamel pins in Lincoln

I was volunteering at a charity event in the Haymarket District in Lincoln on Friday around 4:20 PM when I realized my small bag of enamel pins was not in my pocket anymore. I had them clipped to a lanyard as I moved from 8th Street toward O Street to greet guests near the plaza. I likely brushed past a bench or dropped them on the crowded sidewalk. They are bright, meaningful pins and I would hate to lose them. If you saw pins near the brick sidewalks around the Haymarket, please let me know via the site. I will be checking the area again this weekend.

Lost Pocket Watches in Lincoln, Haymarket

I lost my Pocket Watches this evening after a stroll through the Haymarket in Lincoln. It was around 6:15 PM on Friday when I realized they were gone from my coat pocket. They’re two vintage silver watches, one with a tiny engraving that reads 'Granddad' and a few scratches along the chain; they feel like a piece of my family. I retraced my steps along the brick sidewalks from the farmer’s market stalls to the bookstore, but the Haymarket was already buzzing and the watches could be anywhere. If someone found them, I’d be grateful beyond words; they mean the world to me.

Lost canines near Memorial Stadium, Lincoln

Friday night around 8:15 p.m., Milo, a friendly golden retriever, and Luna, a quick border collie mix, bolted from my side near the UNL campus, by Memorial Stadium. I was walking them along 27th Street when a jogger's dog darted by and they slipped their collars in the chaos. Milo has a white chest patch and is remarkably trusting; Luna is alert and a little wary of people she doesn’t know. I'm terrified they'll wander into traffic or slip far from the crowd; if you saw two dogs matching that description near the stadium, please let me know on the site.

I lost my adapters near the Capitol, Lincoln.

Last Friday at 7:30 p.m., I realized my travel adapters were missing from my bag after a quick walk through the Haymarket in Lincoln. They’re small but essential: a USB-C to USB-C and a micro-HDMI dongle in a rugged black case. I’d left them on a bench near the sidewalk in front of the Pinnacle Bank Arena as the sun dipped behind the Capitol. Those adapters are crucial for my work trips, and I’m hoping someone picked them up and kept them safe.

USB drives lost on UNL campus

I’m Daniel Morales. I was on UNL City Campus by Love Library around 3:20 p.m. last Friday when two USB drives slipped from my backpack and disappeared into a crack between the steps. The drives hold weeks of lab data and client backups I can’t redo, and losing them makes my stomach drop. I retraced the route from the library entrance to the coffee shop, and back again, but there’s no sign of them. I’m worried someone could access the files, and I’m hoping a kind passerby turned them into the campus lost-and-found. If you’ve seen them around the Love Library area, please help me get them back.

Lost Radios in Lincoln, please help.

I lost my Radios this afternoon around 3:15 p.m. near Haymarket Park, just off 14th Street and O Street. The Radios are two portable units in a tan canvas bag, one with a faded label from a family project. They mattered to me because they remind me of my grandfather and our old hobby, and I’m anxious to get them back. The area was busy with shoppers and vendors, but I must have set them down while chatting with a friend. If you found them, I’d be grateful to be reunited with these pieces of memory.
