Linda Green, SheffieldAt last – a movement that will bring BR back into public hands.
John Rowley, HullJust get it done.
Jozef Tipson, GloucesterBring back the glory days of British Rail travel.
Simon Coulton, BradfordLet’s get back to a rail network that was the best in the world. Look at other countries as models for what we should be aiming for.
Frank Nicholas AdamWith a reintegrated railway system, the bureaucracy could be cut benefiting the normal people in society.
Gemma Evans, CaerphillyPower to the people. Down with privatisation.
Simon Wood, Bath25 years ago you didn’t feel like you’d arrived in a developing country when you used the UK rail system after having travelled by train in France or Germany.
Josh Learwood, LondonRenationalise the railways now.
Martin Ludford, PeterboroughAt last, I have found a campaign group dedicated to re-nationalisation of the rail network. The current system in the hands of private ownership is totally dysfunctional.
Adrian Sedgwick, BlackpoolIt’s about time the customers were considered, with the companies yielding a smaller profit margin, to accommodate cheaper fares.
John Wakefield, StoneFor all our sakes – and the environment – let’s have our national rail service back.
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.
Naomi Wallace, OtterburnStop wasting tax payer money on private rail. Bring back public owned transportation.
Colin Austin, PeterleeEast Coast is doing an excellent job. If it is not broke do not fix it.
Paul Duffy, MotherwellBring back British Rail. Simplify train fares – one ticket and price for any train, not separate tickets for Virgin, Cross Country, London Midland etc.
Rose Frain, EdinburghBrava Bravo.
Igor Ryabukhin, LondonIt’s disgraceful that yearly tickets cost more than it costs to run an average car and the trains are late at least 50% of the time.
John ConleyPlease bring back British Rail so I can return to work on the railways I love.
Will Bale, Caerphillythe cost of rail travel in the UK is getting more expensive but is still increasingly inefficient. It should be re-nationalised.
Steve Cobb, AshfordTime for a change. Commuters have increasingly been mugged off by the rail companies and Network Rail for too long.
Dean Brown, EnfieldRe-nationalise our railways.
Rev Padma Sumananda, BournemouthIf you remember British Rail, this is a complete no-brainer – a system that worked and did not give inflated profits to incompetent private companies.
Michael Kelland, LondonLudicrously overpriced, unreliable. The rail system is awful.
Bill PorterWith fewer staffed ticket offices the travelling public will get worse customer service and no help getting the best deals from an ever confusing array of tickets.
Nicola Laing, Haywards HeathSack Southern and Claire Perry.
Ashley Jones, BristolI agree – bring it back to get rid of rip-off prices.
Alastair CurrieRailways are a service, and services should be run by the country for the people, not by individuals for a profit.
James Dawn, GloucesterRailways are the property of the British public like all infrastructure. Utilities should be not owned and plundered for profit by fat cats who pay no taxes.
Sean Cole, GravesendAn embarrassment to our country, and legitimately a large source of much misery in my life.
Ian Beasley, Stoke-on-TrentOur services belong in public hands. No more private railways or bus services.
