Following a recent post re what you can and can not bring on the bus I had an email asking if a Chain Saw can be carried on the bus.
Yes you can bring a Chain Saw on the bus.
Under either of the two following conditions:-
Condition One
A) You have a letter from a reputable garage workshop which states that running water at the rate of one litre per minute has been fed through the petrol (gas) tank for at least 24 hours.
B) You have a letter from a reputable Bomb Disposal Officer that states he/she has dropped 100 lighted matches into the petrol (gas) tank and there was no sign of an explosion.
C) The petrol (gas) tank is full of dry sand.
D) You can convince me that a Chain Saw comes under the heading of normal hand luggage.
Of the above I would suspect that part D would be the hard part.
Condition Two
The Chain Saw is running and you get on accompanied by a film crew screaming,"I'm a Texan! This is a remake."
You are more likely to get your Chain Saw on if condition two is applied.
Good luck.

Hey, on the other side, I once helped a poor and slightly goofy man wrap a propane tank in an old blanket and then stuff it into a large bag. It was a cold winter and his only heat was a propane heater. Propane tanks definitely don't belong on buses. When the bus came, he carried his bundle on, paid his fare and kept a low profile until he got to his stop. It seemed like the right thing to do. I'll also sometimes let people load on far in excess of the allowable amount of luggage. It helps if it is pouring rain and they have infants with them.
