Kim Grais, LeedsThe privatisation of public services experiment is an unequivocal failure. It’s time to take it all back.
David Willoughby, Houghton-le-SpringThe quicker the better.
Roy Pittman, WestminsterPrivatisation has failed, re-nationalise the railways now.
Barry Graham, YorkCritical infra-structure like railways should be owned by the public as in many European countries.
Malcolm George, WakefieldWe need a rail network to service citizens not city banks.
Eileen Gibbon, SheffieldThe success of East Coast where private companies failed makes the case for bringing back British Rail.
Stuart Parker, LiverpoolA national railway system for the people and owned by the people run at cost plus investment.
Carolyn Scott, LeicesterIt worked well in my past. I want it to be part of my future.
Janet Ferry, BlythWe live in Northumberland and we want a train.
Steven Fraser, DunbartonshireBring back British Rail!
Michael Wynne, HoveFor a saner, more integrated rail system, bring back British Rail.
David Robinson, DewsburyRailways should be run as non-profit-making.
John Traynier, CambridgeBring back British Rail.
Sam SmithWe all know re-nationalisation is the way forward.
Martina Lednicka, GravesendI commute every day and the service is awful. I’m delayed on a nearly daily basis but because the delays are for less than 30 minutes it means I’m not entitled to compensation.
Jane Gannaway, LincolnThe railways are an essential part of our national transport system and all profits should be used to maintain and upgrade the system, not siphoned of by the fat cats.
Raymond Kerstetter, LondonI actually reside in the US, but have friends in the UK, and have used the trains many a time. I’m all for decent travel.
David Bell, Ashby-de-la-ZouchRe-nationalise the rail service. It was ours and should be again.
Jiri Malina, LondonDo it as soon as possible.
Brian Racher, West SussexLet’s get it all back under one roof and run by people who understand the rail industry, not those fat cats who are getting fatter by the minute at our expense.
Elizabeth Rickard, Newcastle-upon-TyneThe East Coast proves it can work.
Janet Mobbs, StockportThe railways are too important to our economy to be run on market forces. They should be there to deliver a service, not to make private profit.
Oliver Jarrett, LondonI’m fed up with prices, service and awful names and symbols.
Glen Postle, Toowoomba, AustraliaI first visited UK in 1974 when British Rail were still operating. Any similarities between service and comfort then and now are non-existent.
John Wood, CromartyEnough is enough.
Dave Audin, BarnsleyThese greedy rail companies are squeezing everything they can out of the public whilst putting nothing in to make it better and are killing our railways. Bring Back British Rail.
Stewart Murray, PrestonIt would be fairer on users.
Olivia McNeilis, LondonI’m fed up with paying an extortionate amount for poorer and poorer service.
Alice-Amanda Hinton, LondonWe need an integrated, inexpensive, convenient and comprehensive mass transit system.
Hany Taha, Bognor RegisBring back BR.
