If I wanted to bomb a station, I'd put the bomb in some luggage and
leave it somewhere like in the station pub, on a short timer. No more
than five minutes, which is enough time for me to get away.

People leave their luggage by their table and head off to the bog or
something all the time. And of course it's not "unattended luggage" if
you've asked someone at the next table over to keep an eye on it for
you.
