Gesture & etiquette
Looking worried, slight bow, pointing vaguely as if searching.
Be prepared to provide as many details as possible: train line, approximate time, car number (if remembered), direction of travel, station of boarding/alighting, and detailed description of the lost item. You might be directed to a Lost and Found center or police station.
