Lost toy train near Durham Amtrak platform, NC

On May 2, 2026, at about 7:50 a.m., I realized my small wooden toy train was missing from the seat pocket on a Raleigh-Durham line train as we rolled into Durham Station. I had tucked the little red-and-blue engine into a tote to keep it safe while I commuted to Chapel Hill, but it must have slipped out during the stop. The train is a simple yet cherished keepsake—my nephew loves it, and it means a lot to him. If you found it near the Durham Amtrak platform, I’d be grateful for any sign of its return.

Lost utensils near Franklin Street, Chapel Hill.

Saturday around 11:00 a.m., I realized my utensils were missing from the kitchen counter after helping clean up brunch at a friend's place on Franklin Street in Chapel Hill. The set includes a wooden spoon with a chipped handle, a teal spatula, and a handful of metal forks. I must have left them behind in the rush to get out the door, and now I’m scrambling to replace them for a big potluck next week. If you found a mismatched collection of cooking tools around Franklin Street, I’d be grateful to hear from you—these utensils mean a lot to me.

Lost Microwaves near UNC campus

On Tuesday around 7:15 p.m., I realized my Microwaves were missing from the kitchen of my apartment near the UNC campus. I’d last used them to reheat leftovers in the small galley on Franklin Street, just a short walk from the campus quad. I’m stressed because I rely on them for late-night meals after long library sessions, and I’m sure I didn’t leave them behind in the apartment. If you found my Microwaves, please keep them safe; they’re not fancy, but they’re mine and they matter to me.
