"I entered into the train at Rimini station putting my violin right above me so I could see it ... about an hour into the train journey I was unable to keep my eyes open from exhaustion ... " the owner has told The Violin Channel.

"Upon arrival to Milano Centrale I realized my violin was missing from the upper-head compartment," she has said.
