Richard Walker, WilmslowPrivatisation has ruined our railways almost as much as Beeching. The status quo only benefits the shareholders and bosses. Too much freight on the roads now too.
Greg Cecil, LondonThe break-up of the UK is directly attributable to the loss of British Rail/Gas/Telecom etc. There’s no sense of national identity now. Bring it back. Bring it all back.
Patricia Preece, LedburyWe regularly travel across the country, encountering delays due to cancellations, strikes etc. Different providers do not take any responsibility for the consequences.
Cora Lowe, Stockton-on-TeesEast Coast in public hands has given big profits to the government. We should not be giving all the profits to those who are already superrich.
Ken Connor, FakenhamTrain services are vital. They should be run for the benefit of all users and staff and not by people who want to try and make a profit out of it.

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.
