Your Views
James Hobbs, BristolThe prices of rail travel in this country are disgusting and something has to be done about it. Cheaper rail prices would mean fewer people driving cars which means a greener country.
Julia Charlton, Newcastle upon TyneEast Coast is working well – keep it public.
Karen Robertson, EdinburghAll profits should be invested in the services, not given to shareholders.
Anthony Hook, ChesterfieldBritish Rail was originally financed by the British taxpayer. It should be owned again by the British taxpayer.
Angela Gardner, ManchesterI am embarrassed by the shambolic services, the prices astronomical and will not encourage car users to leave the road.
