James Mackay, GlasgowGive it back: you’ve mucked it up.
Helen Haynes, Kings LangleyPassengers not profits.
Gary Clark, SunderlandOur railways would be much better suited in the public’s hands and not Cameron’s Spiv capitalists.
Margaret Martlew, SheffieldRe-nationalise the railways. Stop paying shareholders.
Anne Wren, SaleIt is so very expensive to go by train in this country compared with Europe and the USA. it is subsidised in those countries and so cheap to travel anywhere.
Robin Whittaker, Canvey IslandNetwork Rail next.
Pat Boon, BirstallI long to see the railways return to public ownership and not run for private profit but as a public service.
Andrew Philp, Budapest, HungaryI live in Hungary where the railways are much better and state-owned.
Chris Moon, BridgwaterNo public service should be run for private profit as it can never serve people’s interest.
Keith Kennils, Newcastle-upon-TyneEast Coast is making a profit under state ownership. Keep it that way. Stop the rip-off price rigging of train tickets.
Hannah Straw, NottinghamTrain travel is now prohibitively expensive. Smaller stations are not serviced, meaning that only wealthy people who live in well-connected places can use it.
Jonathan Chalcraft, BrightonLet’s get people out of their cars and back onto cheap public transport.
John Hogg, BradfordSooner rather than later.
Ron Carr, ChesterLet’s get back to rationality.
Rachel Cholerton, ReadingFirst Great Western has a shocking service, not worthy of being on the tracks.
Mart Duffy, LeedsThe network should work for the benefit of those who use it.
Richard Firth, North ShieldsAs the son of a railwayman please restore British Rail to being one national company.
Mat FlemingThe privatised railways make no sense for the passenger. Companies and managers make huge profits whilst passengers, taxpayers and workers are ripped off.
Eddie McGuire, GlasgowMy cousin was a train driver so I’ll always support ASLEF and RMT in their campaigns. Rail keeps Britain united.
June Abbott, PerthRipping off people left, right and centre.
Angela Bell, DidcotI’m fed up with cancelled trains and rising fares.
Mike Domingue, HexhamIt would be great to also see improvements to rolling stock used on regional services like here on the Carlisle to Newcastle line.
Stephen Doggart, DundeeWe are supporting the network with our taxes. Let’s get something back from our investment. Nationalise Now. Put the people back in charge.
Carol Pennell, WickfordThey should never have been sold off.
Kenneth Porter, HitchinThe sell-off of British Rail was a ludicrous idea and the situation should be reversed as soon as possible.
Dean Barker, SunderlandBBBR.
Lewis Hart, St. AlbansI am a member of UKIP, yet both I and some of my friends who are further right than the Tories agree nationalisation of the rails is necessary. This appeals to everyone.
Ian Crawford, Leighton BuzzardTrain with standing room only is a joke. Livestock have more rights to travel safely Private companies always check the bottom line and are beholden to shareholders.
Graham Fox, ManchesterThe railways are a public service vital to the country and should not be privatised, with the profit going to subsidise other European state railways. It’s disgusting.
Richard Leaman, PrestonPrivatisation has been a disaster. Carried out without a political mandate, and maintained against the general will of the country. It’s time to reclaim our railways.
