I’m fed up with essential services being run to make money for a few rich people. Profits should be ploughed back into the service as reduced fares or improvements.

Kaissa TaitIt is cheaper to rent a car for a week than buy tickets from Birmingham to Brighton. We should be encouraging people to use green transport not pricing them out.
Richard Halton, High WycombeAll too regular peak time cancellations and short-formations have led to dangerous overcrowding for passengers. There just aren’t enough carriages to meet demand. Very sad.
Thomas Davis, LondonI believe the new rail ticket design is confusing for all and unfair for people with sight problems. The design needs to revert back to the old one.
Rhys Thwaites-Jones, AberystwythThere are no motorways or dual carriageways in our county and the railways are vital. Invest and reinstate the rail link from South Wales to Mid and North Wales.
Kenneth Raistrick, ManchesterWith prices far higher in the UK than in the rest of Europe, bringing back BR is one of the best things to do. The railway should be for people, not shareholders’ profits.

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.
