This is a small, unassuming building. There aren't many items visible within it at a glance. There's a counter with a very cute plushie sitting on top. There's another Depot Agent sitting behind the counter, and he's comforting a young girl, who is on the customer side of the counter, crying.
She sniffles, shy, but appreciating Ritsuka leveling with her.
"It's white, and it has a brim, and some patches on it... And, my grandma gave it to me... I had it when I got off the train, but I don't know where it went after that..."
"I got off the train, and then I waited on the platform for a little while, and then I went onto the bridge and looked out at all the train tracks and the trains going to sleep... But then I realized after a while that—that it wasn't there anymore."
On the way back to the bridge you do pass a conspicuous control panel facing out over the train yard.
But you can make it back to the bridge without incident! You don't immediately see any hats on the bridge. The Depot Agent who is lost in thought is still there.

[ That is the sort of logic that usually works for little kids, okay. ]
Where did you go after you left the train? Maybe I can look. I'm planning on walking around a bit while I'm waiting.

She gestures off from her head in a clumsy approximation of a bucket hat with a wide brim.
"And it has a Brycen-Man patch and a Charming Munna patch..."

[ She gets to her feet again, ruffling the girl's hair. ]
I'll go take a look. You wait up for me, okay?

The Depot Agent in here looks relieved at your assistance. "Th-Thank you so much!" he adds.

[ TIME TO DOUBLE BACK TO THE BRIDGE since the little girl mentioned it. ]
