Oscar Speed, NottinghamRe-nationalise.
Richard Keel, GlasgowThe theft that was their nationalisation continues to rob us daily. This must end.
Pete Thompson, BlackpoolWhy is the railway punished so much? It’s starved of funding, sold off cheaply and then selfishness bleeds the profits.
Anthony Wilson, East SussexI want to shove my train ticket somewhere I won’t say! But you know where I am thinking of, cough, cough!
Robert Harper, NottinghamPrivatisation hasn’t worked for the travelling public. Politicians, their friends, corporate bodies, the City etc. have profited from privatisation. It’s a public service.
Greg Marshall, NottinghamStop profiteers making a packet out of ordinary people.
Claire Wade, BromleyBring back British Rail. It should be a publicly-owned company accountable to the public.
Huw Spanner, HarrowBritain deserves a top-class, publicly-owned railway like France.
Stephen Cole, IpswichThe privatisation is a disaster, with extortionate prices and poor service in return.
Laurence Cooke, CoventryEnough is Enough.
Thomas Smith, CheshamHaving so many TOCs does not provide competition, but very complex and expensive fare structures. They should all be merged into a publicly owned company.
David O’Byrne, ManchesterBring it back.
Darren StraceyPlease bring it back. Ticket prices are way too high and over-crowded trains. More rolling stock is needed.
Mary Smith, SwadlincoteAffordable travel is a vital part of a nation’s infrastructure and should be run as a service.
Trevor Lewis, LondonReturn all public services back to people, ownership and management.
Jack Dickinson, PenzanceFull communism.
Joseph Kendall, LiverpoolWe need to bring back British Railways, not British Rail. We need to reverse Beeching and build new, specific high-speed lines to increase capacity.
Derek Richardson, South QueensferryI agree with Jeremy Corbyn. British Rail.
David Sivier, BristolWe need a train service run for the passengers and people, not corporate profit.
James Parmenter, MarchRailways should be run by the people for the people.
Dave Ayres, Milton KeynesComment not needed – The problems are obvious without even looking.
Paul Nixon, CreweAll public transport needs to be integrated.
Jill Hancock, DurhamEast Coast is in public hands and doing well. It should stay public. Profits are returned to taxpayers.
Andrea Dudding, YorkPublicly-owned railways cost 30% less than our fragmented private ones. No joined-up thinking by government.
Mark Jude, LincolnI think once it’s 100,000 it’s heard in the House of Commons.
Neil Harness, Weston Super MareI rarely use trains since it took 7 hours to go from Chester to Doncaster. After that journey I purchased a motorcycle and never looked back.
Edward Currie, LondonAs an artist and member of Equity, we often have to travel at short notice. Our current rail system does not work for me. It’s expensive and unreliable.
Sueton Sayers, WolverhamptonThere are far too many different companies operating the railways. It’s far too complicated.
Michael Cotton, Bologna, ItalyAn excellent idea.
Heather Carr, FalkirkThey should never have been privatised.
