Fond memories of the days of British Rail. Bring them back.
Your Views
Patrick Spain, Milton KeynesYes to re-nationalisation, but I do think they should be run for profit, with profits used for re-vamping our railway lines and stations, future and for re-opening lines.
Sam La Roche, WrexhamNationalise BR for a better service, a cheaper service, a public service. It’s what the public want.
Peter Harding, SleafordI’m a long-time supporter and user of East Coast trains. It was a brilliant company. It’s time the whole network was out of private hands.
Charlie Monck, CharlburyRe-nationalisation should take place without any compensation to shareholders. They bought what we already own, so should lose their money as if they’d bought a stolen car.
Rob Jewitt, AlnwickPrivatised rail is a costly failure. Publicly-owned East Coast shows it can be done better. End franchising and bring rail back into public hands.
