HAVE you lost a treasured teddy bear on the train?

South Western Railway (SWR) is trying to reunite 10 beloved toys with their owners.

The rail company’s lost property team has looked after 19 soft toys at their office at London Waterloo this year.

SWR say that the teddies were found on train seats and station floors across its network. To mark National Teddy Bear Day yesterday, the company is sharing an image of 10 lost soft toys in the hope of reuniting them with their owners.

Claire Mann, managing director of SWR said: ‘We know that the teddies and toys left on our trains have a loving owner out there but have been sadly left behind on a train seat or dropped on the floor in the hurry of boarding or departing a train.

‘We hope that the teddies featured in our campaign will be reunited with their owners, fixing broken hearts, and providing the perfect companion to look out the window with on their next adventure together!’
