Bring Back BR. They were a brilliant company managing the railway network.

Paul Ibbott, BedfordI have always believed in a nationally-owned rail system which provides a value service and removes road travel misery. Just visit the Hauptbahnhof in Berlin and weep.
John Airey, PeterboroughWe can do better with our railways when they aren’t subsidising the railways of other countries.
Steve Thomas, CheltenhamIt wasn’t theirs to sell, and profit has pushed out service and safety. Bring it back into public hands.
Merlyn Cooper, AberystwythOne rail, one service, one monopoly. That’s not how capitalism optimises a service. Utilities are not for private ownership.
Lauren Hopkins, LondonI use the train frequently and am disheartened at the decreasing levels of quality of all journeys. We need to standardise the whole network as it is a disgrace.

The public ownership of Scotland's Railways makes it much easier for The Scottish Government to cut fares to help encourage more rail use 👏 When Great British Railways is established we need to see #PeakFaresGoneForGood all over Britain 🚆 Heidi Alexander? @top fans ... See MoreSee Less
