I totally agree with the railways being returned to the public sector. I find it amazing that we are paying the private sector public money to run our railways.

David McDermid, Newton MearnsPrivatisation of BR was one of the most inexcusable government decisions ever. We are left with high fares and bad service. Privatisation didn’t work for BR.
Fiona Potter, BillericayUnification is the only logical and efficient way to bring mass rapid passenger transit into the 21st century.
Chester Reed, Newton AycliffeIt’s disgusting how they let these private companies run riot on fares. We should be able to jump on a train on the day at similar costs to the rest of mainland Europe.
Alexander Chopra, LondonBritish Rail was the world’s second most efficient railway until the horrific mistake of privatising it was made. Now we have to suffer high priced shambles..
Phill Lloyd, HailshamBring back British Rail. Privatisation of the U.K railway network is a proven failure; just ask the fare paying passengers!

Bring Back British Rail is coordinated from Glasgow by Ellie Harrison, with the help of a small network of volunteers around the UK.
The campaign operates as a ‘non-charitable campaigning body’ and so is free to carry out political activity and act as a pressure group.
It aims to be a completely autonomous and transparent passenger-led organisation, which has no direct affiliation with any political parties.
