Mitch Law, Weston-super-MareI pay £10.30 for a 30 minute train ride. I never get a seat and I feel ripped off every morning.
Tom Freshwater, WallingfordIt just makes sense.
Paul McNally, WashingtonI fully support the need for a publicly-owned and run railway in Britain.
Sarah Richards, Newcastle-upon-TyneA railway system should be a public and publicly-owned service, not a profit-driven company.
Linda Green, SheffieldAt last – a movement that will bring BR back into public hands.
Dave Devaney, LiverpoolPlease re-nationalise our railway lines.
Ian Ward, BridlingtonIt’s time to take back control from fat cat shareholders and introduce cheaper travel.
John TaylorI say bring back British Rail because all the private companies are robbing everyone – from those who work on the railway to the passengers.
Aidan Wilson, South ShieldsI think that if we bring back British Rail, it will cause a smarter, unified railway for the public.
Jane Topliss, DerbyThey’re robbing taxpayers blind.
Peter Brooks, GloucesterOne organisation for the good of all passengers.
Tony Mayer, SwindonAs franchises end, give to a reformed British Rail as was done with the N E line only to be undone by the Coalition.
Alice Pearson, Newcastle-upon-TyneFallacy of competition improving service and reducing costs thoroughly falsified by our extortionate rail system.
Wilfrid McNeill, ManchesterThe private rail companies of the UK are an absolute disgrace. Re-nationalise now.
Barbara Brogan, LetchworthPrivatisation may be cheaper short tern, but if the railways were publicly-owned any future profits would benefit the country not shareholders.
David S., Milton KeynesIt should never have been privatised, like all other public services – Water, Gas, Electricity, which were all sold to foreigners who made a fortune off the backs of British people.
Richard Sinclair, HoylandAs a taxpayer I want that profit directly fed back into rail services and my rail fare.
Peter York, SheffieldTransport is for the people not shareholders.
Sheila Lovelady, EasthamWorst things to happen, first that wretch Beeching then privatisation. A good thing is to restore it to what it was.
Martin Odoni, SalfordPrivatisation has been a catalogue of disasters.
Spencer Green, OakhamThis is ridiculous. I pay £14.70 a day for my train to college and half the time the train is not even on time or there’s no seats and I have to stand up.
Stephen Graham, ManchesterNetwork Rail are hopeless.
Issa Norton, WellingboroughWe need a more efficient, cost-effective service, and bringing back British Rail could do it.
Lewis Davies, BournemouthThe ownership of the railways in the UK should be in government control not for private profit but run for the public and invested in by the government not private companies!
Matt Wellings, WrexhamI’ve joined. Good on ya.
Roger Averill, NorthamptonThe railways are already nationalised, but it’s the people in Europe who own our railways. Take them back!
Richard Hampson, PeterboroughPrivatisation only lines the pockets of greedy people while everyone else loses out. Oh but wait, that’s what’s at the core of every Tory policy.
Jeff Cooper, ChesterfieldPrivatisation has been a disaster for everyone except the train operating companies.
Andrew Butler, LincolnThey should never have been privatised in the first place.
Leslie Crawford, LiverpoolBritish Rail was always a more efficient, safer rail system when nationalised.
