Hi there,

Apologies in advance if this is not the correct place to post this.

I left a rucksack underneath my seat on the GWR^▸ (Great Western Railway) from Bristol TM^‡(resolve) to Paddington 4 days ago.

I have registered with Lost property on GWR (Missing X) and at Paddington (lostproperty.org) but nothing has turned up.

I am wondering whether the bag would stay hidden for longer than usual because it is under seats 1 and 2, which are the first 2 seats as you enter the carriage and the bag is tucked in the corner.

Has anyone had any experience of this?

Or does anyone know how thoroughly the carriages are cleaned at the end of the day/line?

I'm wondering whether i should go to Paddington and have a look myself?

Would that train be going back and forth between Bristol and London all day?

If so I reckon it'd take about 4.5 hours to get back to Paddington, with 2 trains an hour there should be about 9 trains to check in 4 hours, not too bad.

If anyone can help it'd be much appreciated.

Cheers
