Mother F'er
I left my freaking phone on the train this morning....I didn't even notice till my H just called me. He said he called my cell phone and some guy answered.
The guy said that he lives in "so and so" town and gets home from work at 4:30 and I could come get it then.
What would you do? Go get it? Just get a new phone?
Wouldn't you have just handed it to a conductor?
Ugh, I am such an idiot.
ETA:
Alright...all worked out....it's a Christmas miracle!
I talk with him and his wife. They get off at my stop but later then I get on so they will be leaving the phone at the police station in the town I work in. I can grab it tomorrow.
Super nice people. She sounded a little annoyed that she had to drop it off but I would be too.

Re: Mother F'er
I think, based on the town he lives in, I get off at my stop and he gets on at the next stop.
Boom.
That's a bummer..
Unable to even.

You don't understand the appeal of Benedict Cumberbatch / think he's fug / don't know who he is? WATCH SHERLOCK. Until you do, your negative opinion of him will not be taken seriously.
Definitely public, though, like everyone else said, and tell him "my husband will be there..." Etc.
I've bought stuff off craigslist before and I always send my husband. If he gets a weird vibe, he nixes it.
This or he felt guilty about his decision to steal your phone.
Meet him at a public location and pick up your phone or ask your DH to meet him at said public location.
Okay, well I just talked to my aunt and she said he called this morning and said,
"This is Will, I found this phone and saw that you are in here as "aunt" so I thought I would try you first. I found this phone on the top tier of the train."
My aunt said she would call me at work and let me know. ( I must have been with a client because I missed her call)
He then said
"I will be turning her phone off so here is my number for her to call."

DW lost her phone once. The people who found it noticed I had the same last name and called me. Luckily they lived near my work and I just ditched this Popsicle Stand for an hour to go pick it up from their house.
I was profusely thankful to them, and we ended up sending them a thank you card. Cuz we don't have the money right now for a new iPhone.
I left my wallet on the side of a street where I was eating a snowcone. I had just cashed my paycheck, and all of my cash was in it. Some people found it, saw my ID in it, looked me up, and called me. I went to their house to pick it up. I tried to leave them some of the cash, out of gratitude, but they insisted otherwise.
Shortly thereafter, I found a diamond tennis bracelet at the grocery store I worked at. I turned it in at the front office. Its owner soon inquired about it at the office. She wanted to know who found it. When she saw me, she kept trying to shove a $50 bill in my hand. She said, "You have no idea what kind of sentimental value this bracelet has for me. I can't thank you enough."
There are decent people out there.
