Blair Breton, SouthseaModelled on the East Coast service.
Neil Cameron, SheffieldTaxpayers are subsidising rail companies and paying the highest fares in Europe when many people’s incomes are being cut year on year.
Sara Castle, Holmes ChapelPrivatisation is not progress. I want to be able to afford to use the train.
Tom Lynchehaun, PrestonLet’s have our railways run the way they should be run.
Marc Carless, St AlbansWhile I never lived in the age of British Rail, it was in a better state than our current railways. Bring back NSE, Bring back provincial, bring back British Rail.
S Riley, St AlbansSick of useless Thameslink.
Steve Lawrence, SwindonBring back the old British Rail with one company working together, with connections forward linking with most journeys.
Jojo Beamish, LondonBBBR.
Jarvis Coxwell, FarnhamThe current British railway system is inherently flawed, and has gone noticeably downhill. As a 24 year old, I am struggling to afford the 1 hour commute into London.
Peter Cranmer, DoncasterPrivatisation was a bad idea from the beginning. To attempt to break up a national service and maintain this integration was stupid, ill thought-out and inept.
Reuben Taylor, EdinburghI’m sick of being price-gouged, especially since Virgin took over the East Coast line and all the advance tickets shot up in price.
Harrison Foster, PortsmouthPrivatising critical services does not work.
Mark Turnock, LondonJapanese, German, French and Italian trains run on our network. Just think of all those manufacturing jobs we’ve missed out on!
C Prime, NewarkKeep ticket prices low.
M Shone, PenzanceBring back British Rail.
Nigel Lightowler, YorkKeep the East Coast mainline out of private hands.
Melinda McCheyne, ChristchurchPrivatisation and profit before passengers is wrong.
Dave Taylor, ManchesterRailways are a vital service for the country, and must all be in public ownership.
Robert Hendry, RugbyParliament has always meddled incompetently with railways.
Anthony Ellison, GreenhitheWhat an excellent campaign. Get rid of these vile profit making companies who are ruining the railways.
James WoodmanPrivatisation, fragmentation, subcontracting, internal markets, franchising, managers, managers, managers, jobs for the boys… Rip-off Britain!
Jon Hykin, OxfordI totally agree it should never have been privatised in the first place.
Liz Andelin, OtleyIt’s about time it was returned to us. East Coast Rail has proved that it works better than privately-owned.
Jamie Hammond, ChelmsfordEnd this shambles of privatisation now.
Glenn Gridley, AylesburyChiltern are the worst train operating company in the UK.
Richard Roberts, HuntingdonI fully support the re-nationalisation of all public services. The clue as to where ownership should be is in the description. Germany and France recognise this.
Bruce Baillie, CleckheatonWe need a decent transport system and we haven’t got one.
Liam Matthews, EssexAbsolutely shocking service from Greater Anglia, with trains always late and so, so over-priced. I can never get a seat.
Stephen Sinden, WyeAt least under British Rail it was easy to go anywhere in the UK and not be swamped with a maze of different fares.
Laken Walker, HerefordIt was better when British Railways ran the system. The liveries and prices were great. The government should listen to the people and not the franchisees.
