Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to complain regarding the loss of my bag on your train. My name is Tina and I am frequent traveller on your train on Route C.
On Monday, as usual, when I was going to my office on your train; I lost my brown color leather bag. Actually, I fell asleep after I had got into your train at around 9;30 AM at Stevenson station. Later I realized that I had forgotten my bag in the train.
I have various valuable items in the bag like my employee ID without which I will be unable to enter my office. I also have my wallet inside the bag which contains some cash and credit cards.
Could you please take necessary action and help me in searching my bag. I also request you to convey the message to the railway staff who are on duty during this time.
Please let me know if you need any further details. I am reachable at 98104980.
Yours faithfully,
Tina
