I could get to London from Plymouth for £14 on an InterCity Saver back in the day. Now it’s about £180. Where did it all go wrong?

Julia Fleury, BristolI commute on a tri-weekly basis and it’s become a complete joke. Sort it out.
Sandy Irvine, Newcastle-upon-TyneThings that naturally function best together should be kept together in public hands.
Adam Moon, BristolGranted I know Network Rail are trying to modernise the railway but they’re using taxpayers’ money anyway so it should be kept public.
Sheila English, NewportIt’s quite simple. They should never have been sold off as they belong to the people.
Christine Skinner, LondonAs a student in the sixties I could travel from London to Brighton for a pound and. on occasions for an extra shilling (5p), travel on the famous Brighton Belle In luxury.
