Keven Matthews, HalsteadOne railway is all we need.
James Clark, GlasgowRe-nationalise BR.
Sheila Lamb, TewkesburyPrivatisation of the rail network has led to hugely increased fares and shoddy maintenance, as the only thing that matters to them is profit.
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.
Jenny Dimond, WarePublic services should remain as public not private enterprise. Put people before profit.
Joseph Till, LondonThere would be less of a north/south divide if people could afford to visit other areas in the UK. It will benefit all communities across the nation.
Paul Baskeyfield, Church StrettonEnd the crazy ticket price lottery and bring back direct trains from Shrewsbury to London.
Mark Lawrence, AttleboroughRail should be run for the good of the country, not for private profit.

Jeremy Stein, LondonFree public transport for all.
Emma Andrews, TruroBring back British Rail.
Les Railton, HullI remember when British trains were something to be proud of. We should put that right again.

Jenny Garcia, CambridgeBring back a real national service that is affordable and serves the transport needs for now and future generations.
Iain Cameron, South TynesideStart by not re-privatising East Coast which makes a profit.

Tina Harrison, Long EatonBritish Rail should never have been privatised in the first place.

James Ellis, ChesterfieldStop HS2.
Michael Hilton, ReadingTaxpayers paid for British Rail and taxpayers would like it back please.
Frank Lerner, LondonThe nation’s infrastructure must belong to the people.
Rebecca Steventon,Just one word. Argh.
John Marshall, MorpethRail essential service is best and effective in public ownership.
Emma Hewitt, PontefractI would like the profits to go into improving one national rail network, not into the pockets of disparate individuals each owning a bit of a fractured system.
Nancy Burn, Newcastle-upon-TyneI want a rail service with straightforward pricing, regular services, great customer service and a good infrastructure.
Pete Northcott, CambridgeThe first of many re-nationalisation processes, I hope.
Nic Hubbard, YorkThe fact that the infrastructure and major stations had to be nationalised anyway means that simply nationalising the whole thing makes total sense to me.
Ronald Copeland, BrighouseI support the return of BR.
