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 Western Maryland 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 Western Maryland in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

LOST: Power Tools near Maryland Theatre, Hagerstown

On Sunday around 5:40 p.m., I realized my power tools were missing from the garage at my home in Hagerstown, Western Maryland. The tools include a blue cordless drill and a metal toolbox with a red handle. I retraced my steps through downtown Hagerstown, checking the alley behind the Maryland Theatre and the town square, but I couldn't find them. I’m posting here because those tools are essential for my upcoming home project, and they mean a lot to me. If someone happened to have them, I’d be grateful to have them back.

Lost DVDs in downtown Hagerstown near Maryland Theatre

I was leaving the Maryland Theatre in downtown Hagerstown after a show around 7:15 pm last Saturday when I realized my DVDs weren’t in my bag. They’re in a blue double-case with a sticker that says "Family Favorites" and a mix of sci‑fi and classic titles. The set means a lot to me; one of the discs was a copy my grandmother sent years ago, and every time I watch it I think of her. I retraced my steps through the lobby, near the concession stand, and out toward the street, but I didn’t find them. If someone happened to turn them in, I’d be grateful for their return.

Lost Pocket Watches in Western Maryland

I was leaving a birthday dinner downtown Frederick last Monday around 6:45 PM and must have set my pocket watches down somewhere along Carroll Creek Park. One watch is gold with a tiny engraving on the back, the other is silver with a black dial and a long chain. They’re priceless to me, a heirloom from my grandfather, so I retraced steps along Market Street, the benches by Carroll Creek, and in front of the City Hall, but I came up empty. I’m hoping this post helps bring them back home. If found, please know how much they mean to me.

Lost passports in Western Maryland

I lost my passport around 1:15 p.m. on Saturday after stopping for a quick espresso at a cafe on North Potomac Street in Hagerstown. The blue cover and my photo were inside a small sleeve, and I last saw it on a chair by the window near the counter. This passport is essential for my work trip next week, and I’m worried about getting a replacement in time. If it's found, please keep it safe until it can be handed to the proper authorities.

Lost stamps in Western Maryland, help please

I lost my stamp collection, and I’m hoping it turns up. My name is Maya Collins, and last Friday at 5:30 PM I realized a few stamps were missing from the album I keep on the shelf by the window at the Washington County Library, downtown Hagerstown. The set includes a red 1910 commemorative and a small strip of green issues, worn from years of handling. I last touched the album near the window by the cafe and then walked out toward the C&O Canal Trail. These stamps were my grandfather's and carry memories of summers spent along the canal. I’m trying not to panic, but I’d be grateful for any hint through the site about their whereabouts.

Lost GPS devices near Valley Mall, Hagerstown

I was at the Valley Mall in Hagerstown around 4:15 PM yesterday, and I realized my GPS devices weren't in my bag after I left the food court. I retraced my steps from the mall entrance to several benches near the fountain, checked the seating areas, and even asked at the information desk, but they didn’t turn up. The devices are essential for my work trips and keeping logistics on track, so I’m hoping a good Samaritan found them and will report them through the site. I’m posting this in the hope the finder sees it and helps reunite us.
