To encourage people to come and collect their lost items, and not leave them behind in the first place – we have released a list of the 10 strangest things left in our carriages and on our platforms.
Rob Shorthouse, ScotRail Alliance communications director, said: “While it’s always great when we can reunite lost property with its rightful owner, it’s much better for the customer not to lose it in the first place.
“As much as we’ve enjoyed compiling this list, we’re asking customers to spare a couple of seconds, and look before they leave.”
