Michael Morrison, ChelmsfordI have nothing to add that isn’t obvious and said already.
Fred Torr, TruroIt couldn’t make it worse.
Christopher Dixon, BidefordDo it – and stop HS2.
Charlotte Godley, SheffieldAs a student living away from home I gave up on the train due to its general shockingly bad service for distances longer than a few hours. For trains the only way is up.
Liam Bailey, Southend-on-SeaAll in favour.
Christopher Harrison, WarringtonBring back a rail that is not just for profit, but for the people who have to use these services.
Richard Bowyer, DurhamAll the nonsense of a privatised rail network should be overturned. Does history teach us nothing?
Colin Young, SevenoaksI could be proud again of our trains (as I am of the NHS) if only privatisation could be ended and we returned to a culture of public service to and for the public.
Stuart Dye, HailshamNot for private profit.
Lily Bea Mather-Dearden, WellingboroughIf the government cared about what the British public wanted, then the railways would be nationalised.
Jamie Hurst, LondonFare price increases are an absolute joke. Most of the country can’t afford to travel on trains anymore. Bring back British Rail.
James Reid, MiddlesbroughI believe BR should be reinstated because it allowed the British people to travel the country in an affordable manner whilst still making a large profit.
Sandra Turner, GlasgowBring back a decent service.
Nik Devlin, LondonI hate how the UK’s train network is falling to bits.
Darrell Hart, CroydonTrains are for the rich only now. They’ve priced me into car journeys only as it’s cheaper.
Patrick Hulme, AvonI can’t help comparing the situation in Britain with that of France, which is miles ahead in the provision of rail travel.
Charlie Wyatt, GravesendSoutheastern sucks.
Steven EvansFares keep rising, there are fewer trains and the ones that do turn up have shorter coaches which are not keeping up with the demand of more passengers.
Wayne Parr, Wiganit was the worst thing this country did, getting rid of British Rail.
Peter Hubberstey, PrestonI’m sick of bogus fares and little tricks like split tickets. We want a fair fare system..
Fary Webb, BurnleyNationalisation of the Railways is long overdue.
Ian Scarlat, BradfordBring it back to the people.
David Hamilton, SouthamptonPrivatisation has been a farce. The sooner British Rail is re-nationalised the better for all.
George Turnbull, LeedsMorally, economically and for reasons of efficiency public ownership of rail makes sense.
Philip Gibbard, CambridgeThe railways should be a publicly-owned, fully integrated, modern service, not a money-making machine for a few greedy companies subsided by the taxes.
David Motta, FolkestoneYou know it makes sense, along with public ownership of gas, electricity and water. And while we are on the subject why not motor insurance?
Jayne Carter, Weston super MareCommuting on modern trains costs more than driving. How can this be moral? Privatisation was a horrible mistake and should never have been done.
John Brown, LondonRailways for people not profit.
Sam Parkins, HuddersfieldPublic transport should be public, not private.
Mike Nevill, WorthingLet’s have a railway service that serves stakeholders not shareholders.
