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 Oneonta 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 Oneonta in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost GPS devices on Main Street, Oneonta

Two GPS devices in a black zippered case were with me on Main Street near the Oneonta Public Library around 1:30 p.m. Friday. The units are small, rugged, with orange straps for visibility. They hold saved routes from a recent weekend trip, so losing them leaves me stranded while navigating. I checked the library steps, nearby benches, and the sidewalk along Main Street, but they did not turn up. If they are found, I would appreciate their return.

Lost shoes on Main Street, Oneonta

I realized my shoes were gone after leaving the SUNY Oneonta campus around 8:45 p.m. last Friday while walking toward the Main Street Diner. They’re black running shoes with neon orange laces, size 9, and I swear I had them when I left the library steps. I must have set them down for a quick stretch near Neahwa Park, and now I’m feeling the chill of the evening without them. I’m hoping a kind soul found them and will see this listing to reunite us.

Lost travel bags near Oneonta station.

I lost my travel bags this evening, around 6:50 PM, near the Oneonta Station on Main Street. They’re two big suitcases, one black and one charcoal gray, with a red strap that’s starting to fray. I’d just finished packing for a family visit and grabbed a quick coffee at a café across the street, then must have walked away too quickly. Inside are clothes I’ll need for a wedding, plus my grandmother’s small photo album. I’m anxious and scattered without them, hoping someone nearby picked them up and kept them safe. If you found anything matching that description near the Oneonta City Hall, please keep them secure for now.

Lost suits on Main Street, Oneonta, Friday night

I lost my suits after a late shift and rushing to catch the bus. Last Friday at around 7:15 PM, I think I dropped them near the Oneonta Theatre on Main Street. They were in a navy garment bag with two suits, a white shirt, and a tie tucked inside. I’m anxious because I need them for a big interview next week, and I keep imagining someone else wearing them. If you found a bag with suits near the theatre, please bring them to the lost-and-found; they mean a lot to me.

Lost: Work Cases in Oneonta

I was finishing my shift and stepped outside for a quick call around 6:45 p.m. on Tuesday, outside the Oneonta Theatre on Main Street when I realized my Work Cases were gone. They’re a set of black, battered metal cases with my company label and a red laptop bag tucked inside. Inside are documents I need for a presentation tomorrow, plus a few personal notes I can’t replace. I’m hoping someone honest picked them up and will return them to the site so I don’t have to worry about the contents.

Lost Train near Oneonta Amtrak Station

Yesterday at 1:15 p.m., I realized my son's toy Train went missing while we were waiting outside the Oneonta Amtrak Station on Main Street. It is a small brass engine with a red caboose and a handle that has been worn smooth from years of play. It was a gift from my grandfather, and it has become our little family ritual to run it along the curb after trips. If you've seen something like this around the station area, I'd be grateful for any help in getting it back.
