Sarah Edgar, LiverpoolRail costs are too high, especially compared to France, for example.
Richard Paul, StroudThe rail fare-structure alone is madness, plus I’m a passenger, not some customer to be ripped off.
Graham Henderson, BordonRail fares should be going back into the infrastructure and not to shareholders and the bosses of the multiple companies make up our railway.
Tracey Cooper, StevenageWe want them back and we need them back before these private companies make any more money from us.
Rose Whitehorn, BristolCreate a railway for people not profit!
Alan CritchlowLet’s get this back to the British people and run properly.
John Yonker, LondonRe-nationalise the railways. They never should have been privatised in the first place.
Frank Nicholas AdamIf Passenger Focus has orders from Westminster that they are not allowed to comment upon railway privatisation, where is our voice?
Gordon Hay, SandiacreAre our trains better or cheaper now? Not at all. The pricing policy is a joke.
Tony Papard, LondonWe need a co-ordinated British Rail network back, with a simple, co-ordinated fare structure, to be run as a public service, not for profit.
Robert H Marshall, South Woodham FerrersEnd this privatisation and give us back our British Rail lines.
Frank Nicholas AdamNetwork Southeast was an inspiration and success during the British Rail era, with railway improvements across London and the South East.
Patricia Gurney, NewarkWe are the people of Britain and we want our railways back.
Alan Butcher, WashingtonBring back British Rail.
Tom Austin, CrewePrivatisation has hit the buffers. Bring Back British Rail!
Vivienne E Heatley, LondonYes. Bring back British Rail.
Stuart Curran, CooksbridgeInvest taxpayers’ money in the rail network, not in corporate welfare schemes.
David Rudland, EpsomThere is far too much corruption associated with the railways nowadays. For that reason alone BBBR.
Michael Verbauwhede, Brussels, BelgiumFull support.
Frank Lerner, LondonThe nation’s infrastructure must belong to the people.
David White, GlasgowI’m so tired of expensive fares and terrible co-ordination between competing rail operators. Infrastructure should support the wider economy, not exploit it.
Elaine Savage, SaltburnUnited Kingdom is the shame of Europe due to expensive transport.
Carole Green, YorkEast Coast is an example of how much better it is not to have the railway privatised. The further advantage there used to be of one unified system would be welcome.
Giles Camplin, LondonAlso bring back other utilities such as public toilets.
Alun Llewelyn, LondonOur taxes are used to keep the shareholders happy.
Kathleen Russell, WetherbyRail fares are too expensive. Trains don’t run on time. It’s overdue for a change.
Michael Brown, South ShieldsThis should never have been privatized in the first place. It was paid for by taxes – our taxes.
Caroline Dumonteil, LondonEvidence shows that the privatised rail system here is not serving the public interest. It costs far more, is inefficient and deeply disliked by most people in the UK.
Angela Veysey, MeophamLook at the German model (or anywhere else). They’re better organised and far cheaper.
Ned Lane, LeedsThe fares are just ridiculous.
