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 Richmond 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 Richmond in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost chargers near Richmond Courthouse

I lost two chargers last Friday in downtown Richmond, Indiana. Around 6:15 p.m., after grabbing coffee on Main Street, I headed back to my car and realized my tote felt lighter. The chargers were a black USB-C brick with a blue cable and a white USB-A brick. I was stressed because I rely on them for a travel week ahead and my phone was dying. I remember stepping out of the cafe onto Main Street by the Wayne County Courthouse, then walking toward the parking lot near the flagpole. If someone picked them up, I’d be grateful to know they’re safe.

Lost travel bags near Glen Miller Park, Richmond.

Last night at 7:15 p.m., I realized my travel bags were missing after I paused at the Glen Miller Park entrance on Main Street in Richmond. I retraced my steps through the Depot District and back toward the creek, hoping I’d just set them down on a bench, but they were gone. The bags are a matte black duffel with a red strap and a small gray carry-on inside, stuffed with clothes and a few photos from a trip abroad. Losing them feels like losing a piece of my plans for the summer, and I’m keeping my fingers crossed they’re somewhere safe and will turn up.

LOST synthesizers in Richmond, Indiana

On Friday at 6:40 PM, after a quick practice at the Richmond Music Center near the Depot District, I realized my synthesizers were missing from the back seat of my SUV. The two units live in a black flight case with a bright blue PolyNova sticker on the side. I’d parked on South Street in front of the Morrisson-Reeves Library around 6:20 PM after loading gear from the studio. I’ve played these synths for years, and losing them feels like misplacing a part of my creative self. If you’ve seen a similar setup in Richmond, Indiana, or anything that looks like this gear, please keep an eye out.

Lost travel adapters near Richmond Square, Richmond

I lost my travel adapters after a long day of meetings on Tuesday around 9:10 PM. I retraced my steps around Richmond Square and along North A Street, near the Richmond Public Library, but I couldn’t find them. They were in a small black zip case, with a blue USB-C adapter poking out. I rely on them for an upcoming trip and have been checking the sidewalks and bus stops in the area since. If you happened to see a small black case with adapters, please keep an eye out.

Lost utensils in Richmond downtown

I last had them at 7:15 p.m. Friday on East Main Street in my Richmond, Indiana apartment near the Morrisson-Reeves Library. I was tidying the kitchen after making a quick pasta and left my utensils on the counter to dry. A few minutes later I realized they were gone. It sounds trivial, but those tools are part of our family dinners, and tonight I need them for a special meal. I’ve replayed the moment dozens of times, hoping I didn’t misplace them. If you found a small stainless steel utensil set with a dent on the ladle, please keep an eye out near the library steps or along East Main Street in this area.

Lost Sculptures near Richmond Courthouse Square.

I'm in Richmond, Indiana. This afternoon at about 1:30 pm, after wrapping up a sculpture display, I realized my sculptures were missing from the back room near the loading dock by the Wayne County Courthouse Square. There are three pieces: a small bronze figure about 12 inches tall, a larger ceramic piece with a geometric glaze, and a mixed-media sculpture with a rust-red finish. They’re part of a long-running project and mean a lot to me. I retraced my steps along Center Street and through the square, hoping someone picked them up and kept them safe. If you’ve seen them, please leave a note on this site so I can recover them.
