You could get your own box and put your train pass in there, along with your keys and other stuff. It doesn't have to be a fancy box either. Just grab an Amazon box or something, and replace it with a nicer box later
I have specific places for everything. I have a hook for my keys and work badge so I know exactly where they are. It's these little things that pop out from no where. Mostly from traveling to and from work since my week is split between the two. I have my paperwork in files in my home office, I'm organized for the most part.
