Paul Baker, WinsfordPrivatisation has gone too far.
James Harris, BirminghamSave us money, save us time.
Michael Howarth, DoverI worked for British Rail and, although it was too top heavy (like Network Rail now – too many managers) it cared about the track and people.
John Hogg, BradfordSooner rather than later.
Gareth William-Philips, PenarthAnd bring back loco-hauled trains while you’re at it.
Adrian Willats, WaterloovilleI started using BR in the 1970s, along with National Bus Company buses. I see nothing wrong with state-owned transport and I support this campaign. I must get the T-shirt.
Mal Kempsell, LiverpoolSNCF in France seems to work well as does DB in Germany. From home to university in Kent I go through five different companies which are never in sync.
Terence Charles Maddocks, BirminghamThat should never have de-nationalised it.
Liz Lacey, LiverpoolI have used trains for thirty years and have experienced the service drop and prices rise consistently due to greed and incompetence. Enough of this.
Robert Davies, DurhamThe public need to take control again or you will end up like the roads, in dire straits.
Ian Moore, LeedsThe success of the East Coast line shows it works.
Kane Allen, OldhamBBBR.
Patricia Bennett, NorthamptonReturn all privatised services to public ownership.
Luke Phillips, LiverpoolTrain ticket prices are ridiculous and the rail services are bad compared with other European countries.
Paul Monaghan, LiverpoolScrap the corrupt privatisation model. Justice for the 99%.
Thomas Hallam, LondonI do want Britain’s Railway back into our hands.
John Seymour, TadcasterIt is completely immoral when huge profits for shareholders are made at the expense of the public. This government should be sacked for re-privatising East Coast Trains.
Susan Cason, DronfieldPublic funding for the railways should be for public ownership, not for private companies.
Angela Paine, StroudWe should never have let Major privatise British Rail.
Caroline Lewis, Ellesmere PortI hate the private trains and the prices are out of order.
Gerry Curran, BeverleyThis mugging of commuters must stop. Bring back British Rail. It was never yours to sell. It’s ours and we want it back.
Ralph Baxter MBE, NorthamptonIf nationalised East Coast can make a profit then stop subsidising private companies and bring pack a joined-up transport system.
Stevan Hezseltine, CarshaltonPrivatisation is a scandal as it steals from us what is ours and gives to a few greedy rich for their profit at our expense. It takes money from our pockets to give to them.
Giles Long, St AlbansPlease let us have a train system that a modern country like ours deserves.
Daisy Mudhead, StevenageThe whole ‘profit for the few’ mentality is ruining the lives of many.
Evan Tatnall, St. AndrewsThe fact of the matter is that only ScotRail will now service the Leuchars station, instead of East Coast which will stop most direct long haul journeys from Leuchars.
Isobel Hodkinson, DronfieldPlease, please bring back British Rail.
David Treasurer, CanterburyAll public services should be run for people not profit.
Kevin Wisbey, Bury St EdmundsThey are quite happy to delay passenger trains by late running freight. Once is unfortunate, twice coincidence and fifty times is downright incompetence.
Kevin Freeman, GlasgowThe people have spoken.
