yeah I tried that. After two attempts where I got put through to an answerphone I finaly managed to get through to a very disinterested female at the front desk who took my name and address & gave me a Lost property number. She was not interested in where I lost it or details of the wallet.
On the railway if anyone reports a lost item we get a descrition of it plus if possible which train it was lost on where on the train it was lost. If the train is still on it's journey we contact the guard. If it has completed it's journey we trace which service the stock is now on. We also check with the cleaners who despite the fact they are poorly paid often hand in large ammounts of money and/or valuble property. our success rate in tracing items is very good.
At the very least we manage to sound interested
