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 York 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 York in case a fellow passenger picked it up.

Lost Rabbits near Market Street, York, PA

Hi, I'm Olivia Bennett. I was taking a quick stroll at about 7:15 p.m. last Friday, near Market Street by the York County History Center, when my two rabbits bolted from their carrier and vanished into the shadows. They’re small and skittish, a white one with a gray tail and a brown one with a black smudge on the ear. I’ve had them since they were born and I’m terrified they’ll wander off into a yard or shed and forget their way home. If you saw two rabbits darting through an alley off Market Street or heard squeaking under a porch, please let me know through the site.

Lost utensils near Central Market, York

I was leaving Central Market in downtown York around 6:45 p.m. on Tuesday, carrying home a bag of groceries when I realized my utensils were missing from the tote I always use for meals. The three-piece stainless set sits in a navy pouch with a tiny red stitch, and I must have dropped it somewhere between Market Street and the steps by the Central Market entrance. These utensils aren’t fancy, but they’re the ones I reach for every night after a long shift, and losing them stings a little more than I expected. If they turn up anywhere along Market Street between Philadelphia Street and the old rail line, I’d be grateful to have them back.

LOST: Photographs in York, Pennsylvania

I left a stack of family photographs behind at the Strand-Capitol Performing Arts Center after the 11:00 a.m. matinee today, and now they’re missing. These are small, precious prints from the 1960s—my grandmother dancing in a black-and-white photo—and I can picture them in that red accordion folder I carried. I retraced my steps from the lobby to the gift shop area, and then into the hallway near the stairwell, but the photos didn’t reappear. I hope someone who found them understands how special they are and turned them in to the box office.

Lost sheet music near Strand-Capitol, York

I left my sheet music after rehearsal around 5:15 PM on Tuesday in the lobby of the Strand-Capitol Performing Arts Center in downtown York. The folder is black with a blue cover and a red bookmark; inside are pages for a piano-vocal piece I’m preparing for a recital at York College. I went back to search, but the lobby was crowded and nothing was turned in. This music means a lot to me, and I’d be grateful to have it back, especially the notes I wrote to keep me focused during practice. Please keep an eye out around the Strand-Capitol lobby, near the stairs.

Lost pins from my jacket in York, PA.

Hi there, I’m Olivia Bennett. I lost my enamel pins this morning around 8:20 a.m. near the Broad Street Market entrance in York. The pins include a tiny lighthouse, a maple leaf, and a heart pin from a friend—each one holds a memory I can’t replace. I retraced the aisles and checked the sidewalk by the main entrance, but they’re gone. They’re small objects, but they carry big stories, and I’d love to have them back.
