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 Springfield 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 Springfield in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost student ID on MSU campus, Springfield

Hi there, I’m Liam Bennett. I misplaced my student ID on the Missouri State University campus around 3:40 p.m. today, near the Plaster Student Union and the campus bookstore by Cherry Street. The lanyard is blue with a small white name tag and the MSU logo; the card itself is plain but essential for access to classrooms and my dorm. I’ve checked the library, the Student Union, and the bus stops along Elm Street, but no luck yet. If it turns up anywhere around MSU’s campus, please hold onto it for me.

Lost passports near Lambert's Cafe, Springfield

Yesterday afternoon around 2:40 PM I realized my passports were missing after lunch at Lambert's Café on Glenstone Ave in Springfield. I had them tucked inside a brown leather wallet along with a visa packet and a small family photo. I must have left the wallet on a chair near the entrance while I checked my luggage. The wallet is a worn burgundy leather, and the passports inside are visible from the wallet's clear window. This trip is crucial for my work, and I’m terrified at the thought of a delay. If found, please inform through the site so I can reclaim them.

Lost sheet music in Springfield

Hi, I’m Jonah Reed, a local pianist here in Springfield. On Wednesday around 4:15 PM I was practicing at a bench outside Bass Pro Shops Outdoor World on West Sunshine Street when a weathered folder slipped from my bag and disappeared into the crowd. The folder held my sheet music for a school concert and a few favorite passages I’d scribbled in the margins. I remember the flutter of pages near Jordan Valley Park and the smell of rain on the pavement. If you found it, please know how much it would mean to me.

Lost radios from my workshop bag near downtown Springfield.

I realized at about 2:30 PM Saturday that my radios were missing after I packed up at the corner near Library Station on Grand Street in Springfield. I’d been tinkering with a couple of old handheld radios and an antique weather radio, the casings scuffed from years in a wooden workbench. The bright orange dial on one of them is hard to miss, and the other has a dent on the corner that you can feel when you hold it. They’re small but meaningful to me; those devices kept me company during long shifts at the garage and reminded me of old projects. If someone picked them up, I hope they’re kept safe until I can get them back.

Silver keyring with red tag and car key

I lost my silver keyring yesterday around 3:45 pm near the Springfield City Library on Main Street. It has a Honda car key with a bright red plastic tag that says 'HOME', plus a brass house key on a scratched silver ring. The ring has a small dent near the clasp and a tiny sticker with my initials 'PP' that’s peeling a bit. The keys are in a soft black leather fob case, now missing. They mean a lot to me—sentimental value since the house key opens my childhood home. If anyone found them, I’d be grateful to get them back today.

Orange Korg microKORG synthesizer (37 keys)

I lost my orange Korg microKORG synthesizer yesterday around 3pm. It was left outside SoundWave Studio on Walnut Street, near the Springfield Public Library’s main entrance, in a black soft-shell case. It’s a compact 37-key instrument with an orange body and black keys, and there are a few stickers on the back, plus a small coffee stain on the top panel. I really need it back—it's my main writing rig and it has sentimental value because I use it for gigs and songwriting. If anyone found it, please reach out. There’s a small reward, and I can pick it up from anywhere in Springfield. The back has a white star sticker that says 'NOVA' which is easy to spot.
