Transport for London oversees the Underground, commonly known as the Tube, the iconic red busses, plus trams, cable cars, overground trains, taxis and river boats. It estimates about six thousand lost items are turned in every week. Each one gets cataloged. Only about 10% of these items will be claimed, and Transport for London does not keep them forever. After 3 months, unclaimed property is donated or sold.
