Had to translate this, from @BahnAnsagen : an announcement on a train in #Germany: "A pair of glasses has been handed into our train crew, model 'Tom Ford', dark grey and high strength.

Die Brille kann in Wagen 36 abgeholt werden. Wenn Sie den nicht ohne Brille finden: Er liegt ungefähr in der Mitte.“ (baulbokowski) #BahnAnsagen
