Norma Tyler, Whitley BayTravel by train used to be my favourite way to travel. I can’t afford the luxury any more. It’s actually cheaper to fly. Bring back our trains for public transport again.
Sue Horne, BrightonSimplify fares and concentrate on running reliable trains.
Duncan Moore, GlasgowOur private rail network is more expensive for users, fares are increasing all the time, it’s expensive for taxpayers, the service is terrible. Bring back British Rail.
Christine Kelly, PortsmouthNationalise all public services now.
Colin Tarrant, DerbyIt’s time to stop rich friends of the government ripping us off. Rail, water, gas, electricity and now the mail too.
Richard Buckland, EdinburghI use the East Coast line from time to time and find the service excellent since it was handed back to the public sector.
Kirk Martin, LondonWhy are our train operating companies now owned by bus companies and French and German state railways – not our Government?
Ian Wilson, MexboroughBritish Rail, while in public ownership, not only ran a better, cheaper service but it also cost the tax payer less than the private rail companies.
Stuart Flude, DurhamWe simply must fight for a better life.
Keith Davies, BangorBring back BR and get the job done properly and with better value.
Mary Wheeler, LiverpoolConstructed for the people of Britain, by the workers in Britain and also paid for by Britain’s taxpayers. It belongs to the people of Britain.
Phill Lloyd, HailshamBring back British Rail. Privatisation of the U.K railway network is a proven failure; just ask the fare paying passengers!
Martin Catchpole, IpswichBring it back. The people’s railway.
Jayne Turner, CardiganThis lot would sell their own grannies.
Igor Ryabukhin, LondonIt’s disgraceful that yearly tickets cost more than it costs to run an average car and the trains are late at least 50% of the time.
Lloyd Jackson, HullHull’s train links are awful and overpriced.
Mike Smith, ManchesterDefinitely.
Keith Bryant, SandownLet’s bring to an end the privatised fiasco that provides the worst service for the highest fares in Europe.
Jennifer Broderick, LymmBring back British Rail.
Duncan Cumming, LondonOver-crowded, over-priced, inefficient trains are not good enough!
Phyllis Pelosi, InverbervieI fully support the campaign for a re-nationalised British rail network. Millions depend on the rail network for leisure, but especially for work.
Frank Sander, Buffalo, USAI live in the USA and fully agree with this protest. Public transport should be public.
Derek Bibb, GlasgowI believe that it is very important to have a unified, not-for-profit railway sytem to provide travel at reasonable cost..
Gill Oldaker, Shepton MalletYes, I agree. Trains should be for the people, not the profiteers. I abhor privatisation of national services.
Louisa Lai, AmmanfordRe-nationalise the railways. For far too long the people have to pay extortionate amounts to the shareholders.
Neil Winterburn, LiverpoolThe rail system of the UK should support the mobility of the population not the greed of corporations.
Laura Flynn, BishoptonTrains are awful in this country.
John Wilson, SheffieldThe railways could be run more cheaply and more efficiently if they were returned to public ownership.
Can Gencer, TwickenhamI’m disgruntled with a sub-par train service.
Gary Madden, Newcastle-upon-TyneIt should never have been sold off in the first place. We owned it, why did we need the chance to buy something we already owned. It was all about giving it to the rich.
