Alan Thomson, WareKeep East Coast Trains in public ownership and add also Greater Anglia and First Capital Connect.
Alan Johnson, LargsThe sooner the better. Stop the wreckers.
Clive Glaister, SloughRe-nationalise the railways! Proof of the pudding is East Coast Mainline. Nationalisation does and can work.
Rebecca Rimmer, NewburyI cannot remember the last time I had an enjoyable journey on a train in this country. Too busy, ridiculous prices, always delayed, missed connections. It’s a joke.
Jeffrey Spencer, Newton AycliffeThe profit from running the railways should be used to reduce fares and improve the infrastructure.
Christopher Thomson, ChelmsfordThe prices are beyond a joke. An end to privatised railway services must come.
Kerry Holmes, LondonChange needs to happen.
Glyn Morgan, LiverpoolWe currently subsidise the rail network more heavily than we did when we owned it yet they still make a profit. That’s our money and it should be re-invested.
Tony Atkin, GranthamI fully agree.
Nik Devlin, LondonI hate how the UK’s train network is falling to bits.
Christina Sundborg, YakimaPlease bring back the British Rail for those that need it for transportation. It’s hard enough getting reliable transportation over here.
Hudson Godwin, Arusha, TanzaniaFast transport ensures easy mobility of people and their goods. In the future it’s important for the Tanzanian government to look upon its railway networks.
Anne Vivian-Smith, NottinghamIt’s time to stop rewarding shareholders for underfunding our transport.
Keven Matthews, HalsteadOne railway is all we need.
Lisa Trendall, Lowestoft, SuffolkBeing a child that grew up on the railway when it was still BR, I have a particular interest in seeing our declining railways return back to being run by the Government.
Hilary Hunt, Market OvertonA rail service where passengers are valued, instead of being ripped off to line the pockets of the already obscenely rich.
Richard Wilson, LondonIt’s disgusting that other national rail networks are subsidised in order to make profits that could be going towards our own government. BBBR.
Peter Fleming, DunstablePrivatisation has led to annual fare rises far outstripping inflation, minimal investment, massive subsidy, increased bureaucracy, no real improvements. It has failed.
Mark Dunwell, LeedsTo say I am heartbroken that my former employer was really bad is an understatement. BRITISH Rail was the greatest nationalised railway in the world.
Jackie Davidson, SittingbourneBring back BR for a better service which will also save the country money.
Paul Lockett, BristolBring back passenger care. If we had invested this much money in BR we would have had a world leading railway, not the fragmented one we have now.
Simon Templar, LondonStop privatising and franchising everything. Transport should be for the people, not shareholders.
Maureen Brookman, Sutton, SurreyWelcome back British Rail.
Huw Jones, FavershamReverse the Tory money-grabbing agenda.
Dorothy Granville, MiddlesbroughBritish taxpayers should own British Rail, not French taxpayers or private investors.
Philip Watson, St IvesThe madness that was privatisation needs to be reversed as soon as possible, not just the railways but all the utilities as well, as these things should all be publicly owned.
Rob Mullender, LondonThe idea that a market exists on the rail network is a fraudulent one. The British public are being fleeced to make a few shareholders wealthy.
Anthony Hopkins, BristolThe rail service should be a viable alternative to car travel but in reality the public are held to ransom by an extortion racket.
Michael Bramley, SkiptonHopeless franchise process continually adding to ticket prices.
