Transport for LondonTfL's Christmas toy story
Based in Deptford, south London, The Salvation Army will work with the local council to distribute board games and soft toys.
Julie Haley, TfL's Lost Property Office manager, said: 'This is a wonderful opportunity for us to donate these lovely toys to The Salvation Army to give to children who are not expecting any Christmas presents this year.
'We understand during this current economic downturn things can be tough for some families and we hope these new toys will help provide some Christmas cheer.'
The Lost Property Office (pictured) handles almost 200,000 items a year that are left behind on the transport network.
Last year, the most common ones were books (36,852), bags (28,550) and items of clothing (27,174).
The Lost Property Office celebrated its 75th anniversary this year.
Over the past seven and a half decades, it has seen its fair share of unusual items - a stuffed puffer fish, human skulls and breast implants are just a few of the stranger things handed in.
