Rebecca Steventon,Just one word. Argh.
Annie Bulmer, EdinburghOh, yes please.
Luke Durrant, NorwichAs a member of the Labour Party, I want to take back our railways. Let’s shake the leadership and inject some socialism back in.
Oszeromolago Babalouista, LondonI like the BR logo. I want to see it more. I want the conductors back. It will be better organised and cheaper.
Lynda Rooke, BristolI travel regularly on rail. Yesterday was a prime example – air conditioning not working, delays, dirty train and slower journey time than the 1970’s.
Mimi O’Halloran, DealWhere I live, the cost of a railcard to send a child to school costs a family £600+ a year. No wonder the kids bunk the trains.
Gerry Mooney, PaisleyRe-nationalise the railways now and plan for a long term investment in the most sustainable form of transport.
Liz Annetts, DerbyWe need a unified nationalised railway.
Sandra Smith, Oulton BroadGo for it.
Michael Spurden, YorkThe privatised fragmentation of British Rail cannot be called other than a total and unmitigated disaster. It has cost us dearly, in money and in lives.
Julie Blunden, HarrogateWe should have a national rail system without a single doubt.
Liam Hawksworth, LeedsNationalise, strike, organise.
Ian Moore, LeedsThe success of the East Coast line shows it works.
David Roan, Milton KeynesPrivatised infrastructure doesn’t work. Try getting from Milton Keynes to Newcastle on multiple providers. It’s a nightmare. It’s also costly.
Jim Shannon, HarrogatePrivatisation means low wages and worse terms and conditions for staff, excessive returns for management and corporations, and poorer service for the public.
Sam Bridges, DerbyI think that British Rail should come back. Let’s hope the train fares go down.
William Marshall, ArgyllNationalise… the sooner the better. We frequently holiday by rail in France. The service only ever falls apart when we arrive back in Britain.
Maureen Hunter, Cleator MoorLet’s share the efficiencies and the profits – not just the abyss of subsidies. Fair shares for all.
Josh Collier, TrowbridgeI’m a season pass holder pay ridiculous amount and as I don’t ride the main line service I get two carriages and never a seat.
Ben Page, BasildonLife with British Rail was cheaper, better run, more organised and had more available routes.
A S, GlasgowI love trains. Why oh why was such a lovely industry privatised and now used for profit only? Bring back British Rail.
Kevin Dudding, Kingston-upon-HullIt is so disjointed that it is unreal, needs to be nationalised to function for the many not the few.
Veronica Little, LeedsIt’s about time.
Jane Walton, HorburyBring back British Rail. It was great. I had the best journey ever in 1985 from Kings Cross when it was good old British Rail.
Nicholas Hayes, DurhamPeople’s daily commute shouldn’t be left to free market greed.
Hilary Hunt, Market OvertonA rail service where passengers are valued, instead of being ripped off to line the pockets of the already obscenely rich.
Christine Maloney, RomfordDefinitely bring it back. I’m just fed up hearing about these price hikes all the time.
Alexander Kounoupias, TadworthSouthern Rail are genuinely a disgrace to the British rail industry. They can’t be allowed to hold commuters to ransom with constant industrial action.
Mark Kingston, RingmerAnd while you are at it, bring back the rail link between Brighton and Tunbridge Wells.
Anne Elizabeth Plowman, SheffieldBring back British Rail.
