Mike D’ambrogio, LiverpoolI wish we could bring back British Rail trains and Inter City, Inter City Eurostar, British Rail ferries.
Thomas Saunders, AshingtonThey should never have been privatised in the first place, and when BR comes back into public ownership, start the process of bringing the buses back.
Krystal Garnett, MerseysideBring back the simplified fare structure.
Alan Carson, PrudhoeThe first mistake was the Beeching axe. This destroyed the infrastructure which made the re-routing of trains relatively simple.
Cathal McCarron, LondonChoo choo!
Mark Edwards, TywynArriva Trains Wales hands down the worst operators ever. Very expensive. Late and old trains which belong in a museum not the track.
Miriam Henry, BristolFirst Buses need to be brought back too. It’s a poor service, serving shareholders’ interests first.
Jane Rendle, Hebden BridgeTrain companies don’t invest, aren’t interested in the green agenda or improving our travelling experience. Basic infrastructure should be state-owned.
Josh Cranwell, Letchworth Garden CityThe companies running our rails are a joke. The prices we pay for the poor understaffed shoddy service is criminal and something has to be done.
Stephen Pacey, WorksopI’m old enough to remember BR, ergo I’m old enough to remember plenty of carriages and plenty of seats – and at a reasonable price.
Jane Moorhead, LondonIt can’t possibly be any worse.
James Smith, LondonGet rid of privatisation.
Chris Horne, ElyJoined-up, efficient, nationalised services as opposed to fragmented, expensive, private services.
Richard Frost, NottinghamIt’s costing the British taxpayer more in subsidies to the train companies than we paid for British Rail. The taxpayer’s money should not be paid out in profits to them.
Emma Macbeth, OxfordI once tried to get a refund at Liverpool Street for a ticket I’d bought in Luton. That experience alone is enough to make me think this madness must end.
Bill Stead, Leamington SpaI believe that a nationalised rail network would provide a far better service and financial return. Forget how it used to be and do it better.
Andrew Spence, HastingsIt is high time to re-nationalise British railways and get the kind of system that the French now enjoy.
David Line, LutonThe sooner the better.
Barrie Blayney, LeedsI believe that all utilities should be in public ownership and not run for the profit of shareholders, other than the British public
Matt Harrison, ReadingSupport Labour’s policy to bring back the people’s railway because people come before profits.
Dave Codling, CheshireMy kids may have to cycle two miles to school, as I find it more and more difficult to pay for public transport.
Lisa Gillott, WalesBritish Rail was a national institution. It should be brought back. If the people want it they should get it, and Parliament should do what we want.
Stewart Bloomfield, StevenageYes, bring back BR. I worked as a guard on BR for seven years. Today I have never seen it so bad. It’s terrible due to the Tories yet again.
Jason George Walker, Stoke-on-TrentNationalise all public services.
Mary Williams, Market DraytonIt’s a total shambles at present and don’t talk to me about the online ticket buying farce. Viva BR.
Toby Shackleton, LondonPrivatisation has failed. Bring back British Rail for the staff, for the commuters and for the greater good.
John Birbeck, YorkWhat a mess.
Eithne Bennett, YorkPeople before profit means Bring back British Rail.
David Younger, Chester-le-StreetPrivatisation of publicly-run companies has never worked and will never work.
Andrew Tate, WolverhamptonWe need to take all our resources out of the hands of big business and place them back into public ownership.
