British Rail ought to be brought back for passenger trains in England, Wales and Scotland.

I wish to see the railways re-nationalised, because it will be back as a service for the public, rather than a source of cash for the rich.

Not for profit is the only way forward. “Enslave the private company executives and chairman!”

But not the sarnies.

Let’s re-nationalise, standardise and make the railways for the fare-paying public not the fat cat franchise management.

If all else, I miss the lovely design.

Choo choo!

Join the national protest on April 1st.

It is ridiculous that the rail subsidy is four times higher than in BR days when most of the train operating companies are foreign owned.

It can’t come soon enough.

Privatisation has made the country poorer. Only big businesses like Virgin are gaining.

Take rail transport out of the hands of profiteers and banks.

Bring back our railways.

Please bring back a decent, nationalised rail service that is accountable to its customers and not to shareholders and profiteering executives.

It is unfair that we are paying higher fares than the rest of Europe.

Sort it out and give us back the railways.

Everybody, and the environment, benefits from an affordable, dependable and comprehensive public transport system. It should not be run for private profit.

I fully agree.

Profit for public services, not shareholders.

East Coast has given more revenue in three years back to the government than Branson has in 10 years, They are a model company that should have been the bench-mark.

Unification is the only logical and efficient way to bring mass rapid passenger transit into the 21st century.

I remember when it was affordable to travel by train. It’s far too expensive these days, so I use my car. I’m not paying for the greedy fat cats’ huge salaries and bonuses.

I hate having to split train tickets to get the best deals from different train companies. Bring back sensible pricing and Bring back British Rail.

It’s a better service when profit goes back into the service not shareholders’ pockets.

Time to end this profiteering. Free markets are proving themselves an unsuitable way to run basic public infrastructure, as one would expect when the market is captive.

I spoke to a man outside the train station on the subject matter and was quite intrigued. I’m only 14 but it’s part of my future so I thought it was a good idea to sign up.

Nationalise all the transport and utilities in Britain.

No state subsidies for private operators to get rich at our expense.

Time to bring back what is proudly British, affordable and fair for all members of staff involved.

Socialise BR now.
