They’re asking everyone to double-check their things before hopping off the train. You’d think it’s just phones and laptops, right? But nope! There’s been a cupboard, a wig, crutches, and even a box of chicken breasts left behind.
One passenger even forgot their bike while still wearing a helmet! And another was on a mission to find a plain white handkerchief. It’s wild out there!
Alex Hornby, the commercial and customer director, mentioned how stressful losing something can be. They really want to help people get their stuff back, but it’s not always easy.
