LPG powered vehicles are prohibited from using the Channel Tunnel, I think
that Motorhomes and caravans that carry gas bottles have special rules too.

Whenever I transport welding gas bottles (even empty ones) I am required by
law to carry special safety data sheets that specify all sorts of
information, hazards, first aid, fire fighting measures etc. It is also an
offence for me to carry the data sheets if the bottles aren't in the
vehicle.
