Wendy Rowland, DevizesBritain has fallen behind on public transport. We need to provide a fair, affordable transport network to get the cars off the roads.
Toby Saunders, FarnboroughMy train fare is too expensive, the service is terrible and I rarely get a seat.
Mike Beaumont, BrixhamJust bring our railways back to where they were before privatisation and upgrade the rolling stock to meet demands for the ever growing population.
Anthony Bonner, AshfordBring back British Rail as it was the best the railway ever and best it has been for a long time.
Steve Barrett, NottinghamIt’s a disgrace at present.
Paul Roberts, LondonStations were staffed all day. Now they’re not and fare dodgers can walk out without paying.
Richard Jowett, BradfordI am sick of the private railways being a mechanism to transfer money from taxpayers to shareholders.
Helen Walter, DurhamThe rail network and companies are failing to meet the needs of their passengers. They should be viewed as public services not for private profit.
Stuart Francis, CheshuntHorrendous company. Trains are too old, crowded and infrequent. They just want to take our money and invest nothing.
Julie Young, ChesterfieldPublic services should be owned by the public.
Irene Coleman, LeedsI want East Coast Rail to stay in public hands and then the rest of the network to follow.
Claire Eve, BrightonPrivate companies do an awful job for double the price. Make it public.
John Cooper, SheffieldYes, re-nationalise the railways.
Bob Harrold, StotfoldI’m not disgruntled, but the money that goes into profits for companies that carry little risk could be going into the rail network.
Ian Hayward, BasingstokeHow can you run a railway and claim maximum customer service when you are also giving millions of pounds to shareholders who contribute nothing?
Sophia James, ReadingThis is long overdue. Private profits never belong in public services.
Angela Hartwich, Stourport-on-SevernIt’s a no-brainer.
Christopher Bell, HullIt is about time profiteering finished and the railway was put back to being a public service. Privatisation has shown it can work, now let’s have some fair play for us.
James Malcolm, DundeeCorporations in no way have the people’s best interests at heart. The only way that can be achieved is by giving it back to the people.
Alan Pope, PeterboroughNo more messing about with different fares and different companies.
M&S Murphy, ScunthorpeExpropriate, not just re-nationalise.
David Smith, Ross-on-WyeBring it back now to the people not shareholders, i.e. Conservatives.
Frank McQuade, MotherwellNot before time listen to the public.
John Malcolm, MayfieldBR should never have been sold off in the first place. As for Beeching?
Dave Ayres, Milton KeynesComment not needed – The problems are obvious without even looking.
Edward Grassby, LondonI want a rail service that efficiently runs cheaply for the public, not an overpriced service that is unreliable.
Alan Sykes, BradfordPublic ownership is essential for our health and well-being. Rail and all methods of transport realise these needs.
David Partner, FromeTrain services are less reliable and more expensive than 100 years ago. How can the madness of HS2/3 be considered before a proper joined-up rail service for all?
Peter Van-Stratten, CardiffJust bring back BR. It was so much nicer and easier to deal with and, being state-owned, you knew where you were.
Eva Schovneld, EdinburghRe-nationalise now.
