So anybody ever have this happen? I lost my phone on yesterday's 20 (11/18) when I detrained at WAS. I put it into lost mode and left a number to call, I GPSed the location and saw as it made its way to NYP. I spoke with customer service at WAS and filed a report (the lady was quite helpful), and called NYP ahead of 20's arrival telling them the manifest number and seat I was in. As of right now (0330 ET) I am at home in Ohio and my phone is in the Queens yards, according to it's GPS. My question is how do I get it back? I mean it looks like it's going out on today's 19 (11/9) and will soon be headed to NOL!
If I see it move back to NYP tomorrow I am going to ping it right as they board 19 to try and get somebody's attention, but low on battery I don't know how else to alert anybody to its location. If not I suppose I'm going to have to wait until a cleaner picks it up or perhaps one of tomorrow's pax will notice it...
I suppose on the off chance anybody here will be on tomorrow's 19 please do me the favor and check the next to last coach, AFII 25001 (according to ARROW but labeled 25015 on interior door) in and around seats 42 and 43... It's a black iPhone 5 with a black bumper case with silver letters 'UAG' on the back. Anybody who is helpful in reuniting me with my device will be greatly appriciated.
EDIT: Yes I have already given all this info to Amtrak both in person at the customer service desk at WAS and over the phone (though their department is closed until Tuesday due to the holiday)
