Help,urgent..train Penzance to Edinburgh

[Hedjwitch]

Is anyone on, or have friends travelling on the 11.15 from Penzance to Edinburgh just now? My son has left his back pack on the train when he got off at Birmingham New Street. A black backpack containing all his stuff! Carriage F5. Can't get any answer on the phone at Lost Property and he has registered on line. Long shot but....please!

I'll be at Edinburgh Waverley in about 15 mins. Heading home on a local service. I can go see if lost property is open. Do you want to DM me contact details, in case I need to call you?

OMG, potentially a live bag rescue. Fingers crossed for you @Hedjwitch, have you seen @HollaHolla‘s offer?

Is it the crosscountry train? Sorry @Hedjwitch , I can't seem to DM you....

following this bag’s journey with interest 👀

🍿

I'm invested in the travelling bag's progress too 😆

It's more adventurous than I am

I've managed to DM you with my phone number, OP. I'll have until about 22:35, as will have to go for my last train home. I'm off to see if I can find a real life person for lost property.
Fingers crossed!!

It will be a Crosscountry Train, yes.

Following.

Fingers crossed OP.

My daughter’s phone once went to London from Somerset and back on its own. We had an anxious few hours but all was well.

It must be this one? (From the National Rail app)

Expected 22:28

Oh,oh. No DM just seen this. Its the cross country train from Penzance. Carriage F. But I finally spoke to someone who said it would be kept at station until claimed and I can get it tomorrow

🎒😬🥺

Sorry, OP, unfortunately lost property is only open (Platform 19)
Monday to Friday 09:00 - 17:30 only.
A very kind man called Johnny Bryan helped me. He said they (Scotrail) can't even get access to anything, as it's run by a private company. You've probably already got this info, but contact is as follows:
Edinburgh (Waverley)
Phone number:
tel:0330 024 0215 0330 024 0215
Operated by:
Network Rail
Please register your lost item at lostproperty.org as lost property at these stations are operated by Excess Baggage Company.

I'm so sorry not to have been able to get a live bag retrieval for you. However, Johnny said that the train had been due in at 22:13. He couldn't check if it had already come in, because, y'know, travel chaos today. He did say that it terminates here, though, and the cleaners hand everything in.
Fingers crossed for you.

Got the DM now. How kind.

Thank you so much for trying. I've been trying to ring that number. I really appreciate it

Sorry - messages crossing in the ether. That sounds encouraging that you managed to speak to someone. Sorry I couldn't be of more help....

Crossing everything!

Im going to Edinburgh tomorrow if you need itcollected

I really hope you get it

Where did it end up? I hope you get it

Got my fingers crossed for you and your DS.
