Robin Brown, Newcastle-upon-TynePlease – a not-for-profit, consumer-owned organisation.
Paul Wheeler, StaffordLast train from Birmingham to Stafford on a Saturday night is 10.35. This is 2017, this is the future, not 1918. A system that works for the customers not the shareholders please.
Alan Frost, EastbourneTrain fares should be reduced when bus replacement service is in operation and notification of why it has been necessary.
Rob Bowles, ManchesterA profitable asset for the UK not shareholders.
Shane Pym, BroadwindsorWe should all support this campaign for affordable, not for profit transport for the masses.
William Conrad, OundleEast Coast showed it can be done.
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.
Rob Gray, LondonBring back the love of travel and not the love of money.
Wayne Elsworth, PlymouthAs a regular rail user of Great Western between Paddington and Plymouth, I find it slower and stupidly expensive with the same 40 year old trains and no plans to improve it.
Patricia Jones, BirkenheadIt’s no joke when you can’t visit your family as much as you would like due to over-inflated fares.
Zulekha Limalia, LeicesterPlease bring back British Rail. Private companies such as East Midland Trains and First Great Western are ripping us off. Travel fares must be reduced and affordable.
Benjamin Denton-Cardew, IpswichAside from GNER, Anglia Railways and Chiltern, privatisation has done nothing for the discerning passenger.
Elaine Musker, King’s LynnIt’s a ludicrous system of ticket-pricing. It’s £10 cheaper for a return to Dartford than it is to London from King’s Lynn even though that is via London.
Steve Lewzey, EdenbridgeThe railways should be run for the good of the user not for private profit
Jonathan Ellison, CheltenhamNational public transport should be run for the public by the government and not by profit incentivised commercial companies.
Alan Rimmer, FleetwoodRip-off Britain. See it by rail, if only you could afford to.
Aubrey Stafford, RetfordPlease keep up the pressure on these stupid politicians.
Arthur Bond, FromeThe sooner the better. Privatisation has only benefitted the shareholders. Never mind what the passengers have to suffer.
Alison Gibney, St AlbansWe need continuous long-term investment in our rail services and the only way to achieve that is through public ownership.
Robert Hart, Newcastle-upon-TyneIt will be fairer and safer and profit will go back into improving rail services and not to shareholders.
Shirley Coupe, NorwichWhy not re-nationalise, take more people off benefits to work in the Industry to, once again, give good customer service, instead of demoralising them with unemployment.
Liz Humphreys, OswestryDisgusting that foreign companies are shortlisted to run Welsh trains following Brexit. Let’s have a British company trading as British Rail.
Liz Lacey, LiverpoolI have used trains for thirty years and have experienced the service drop and prices rise consistently due to greed and incompetence. Enough of this.
Gillian Kelly, AmblesideI used to be able to board a train at Oxenholme and go through to Totnes or Penzance. Now I have to haul my luggage off at Birmingham New St. and change. I hate this.
Jim Waight, HertfordSubsidies should go towards running the trains, not to train operating companies.
Mike Jakeways, OundleBrilliant. Fight.
Kenneth Marshall, ColchesterHigher fares, more taxpayer subsidy, equals shareholder payout or to foreign railway operators.
Trish Joscelyne, East SussexIf they can do it in the rest of Europe, why not here?
Mike Kirwan, NottinghamIt’s a diabolical service and they don’t care about the passengers, but useless top managers are paid millions.
Andrew Ganley, Sutton, SurreyYet another totally fed up railway user.
