Andrew Riseborough, GillinghamBring back British Rail for the good of the country and the fare-paying public.
Sarah Ollier, DerbyAs a student it costs me £10.70 per day for a 20minute journey that is often delayed. I want to use sustainable transport but I lose a lot of time and money.
Penny Jones, LondonOutrageous to have privatised. The rail needed strong reform but not this.
Arthur Simpkin, HassocksNationalising the railway will lower the cost on the taxpayer and lower fares. Having 2000 different companies is a mess. Bring back British Rail.
Michael Frank Ricketts, BuntingfordPrivatisation has benefited us by providing the most expensive rail travel in Europe and a ticketing system which defies belief. End this farce now.
Andrew Clark, Barrow in FurnessWhy does it cost seven times more to get a train from Barrow to London than it does to get a plane from Manchester to Spain? This is unacceptable.
Duncan Crighton, DundeeState profits, not individual profiteers.
Christine Oliver, WellsI’ve used trains for 60+ years. It’s gone downhill since privatisation. We need a national strategy and organisation that puts people and the national interest first.
Catherine Gogarty, GatesheadThere is too much fragmentation in the railway system. We need a nationalised company to oversee the whole system. Fares are too high and trains are not reliable.
Hugh Gurney, GlasgowHand out subsidies (from our taxes) to hand them to investors? It makes no sense.
Derek Chapman, FromeThe prices are far too high, with private companies only interested in profit for the shareholders.
Dennis Archer, ArnoldBritish Rail first then the utilities.
Matthew Saunders, LondonWhat do we do now? What do we do next? What can we do to help campaign for cheaper, simpler and fairer UK rail fares?
David Wallace, HaddenhamBring back BR.
Chris Harris, LondonAfter re-nationalisation, at a national affordable price (one can hope?) begin electrical / magnetic renewable infrastructure.
Tony Nicholson, SouthamptonGet rid of the layers of parasites.
Richard Lockwood, HeckmondwikeBring it back into public ownership before we are ripped off again with the sale of the East Coast Line.
John Heyburn, Rochfordthe price of season tickets is at an all time high. The service since privatisation Is awful. I have had enough. Please bring back British Rail.
Peter Josling, ArleseyExpand the network and take the lorries off the road. Get all containers transported by train.
David Lancaster, YorkRail privatisation has been a disaster and the success of the East Coast mainline service in public ownership shows what can be achieved in the public interest.
Steven Peacock, ChelmsfordBefore our national rail system becomes exclusively only for the rich and famous, re-nationalise it for affordable travel for everyone.
Mike Kelley, DerbyPrivatisation is a disaster.
Margaret Kearns, Ashton-under-LyneIf we don’t stick together the fat cats will get fatter. Act now.
Anna Doughty, ConwyPlease bring back the unified system that made so much sense and ran a much better service.
Colin Flowerday, HoltThe British Railways Board ran an excellent train service. These private companies are useless, typical Tory crap. So bring back British Rail.
Marion Dutton, SheffieldThe current situation is confusing, expensive and inefficient. Bring back British Rail.
Frank Nicholas AdamWe need to reintegrate our railway track and trains into one accountable organisation.
James Ellis, ChesterfieldStop HS2.
Malcolm Bruce, EdinburghSubsidy now is four times what it was in BR days.
Simon Venters, LondonRailways are too expensive and not reliable.
