Andrew Bell, DelamereEnough is Enough. Bring back British Rail.
Lee Gibson, LincolnIt’s time this fiasco was ended and the country’s backbone run at cost to make us a world leader.
Frank Sowerby, DurhamEnd the fragmented railway system. Restore railways to the people.
Vanessa Bowen, HarrogateI believe that railways should be run for the people and not for private profit. This is such an important service and decisions should be made in the interests of the public.
Ian Neave, Great YarmouthI occasionally use the railway myself and I’m getting fed up with buying too expensive tickets on buses and trains. It’s about time to bring back a state owned infrastructure.
Duncan Baillie, KilmarnockI have never felt that a national railway network should be in the hands of separate companies. The service varies so much between them and there is little co-ordination.
George Houseman, WakefieldIt is better to have an integrated railway facility than the fragmented service now available. Also more economical.
Gloria McCargo, LiverpoolBritish Rail was great.
Cameron Ternent, LondonWe are the only country in Europe and nearly the whole world with a wasteful, expensive and frankly shite railway. It’s a national disgrace.
Toby Shackleton, LondonPrivatisation has failed. Bring back British Rail for the staff, for the commuters and for the greater good.
Michael Hare, WarringtonIt’s time to return to Social Democracy.
Frances Townley, BirminghamGood idea.
John Smetham, WallsendRail fares are a travesty – beyond the reach of the people.
John Wood, CromartyEnough is enough.
Richard Jarvis, LeicesterTrain fares are just too high. I work for a charity and year-on-year increases in ticket prices wipe out any salary increase I receive.
Charles Chell, PeterboroughEast Coast has given more revenue in three years back to the government than Branson has in 10 years, They are a model company that should have been the bench-mark.
Iain Woolnough, South OckendonAs I work for Network Rail I see how it is working on a day-to-day basis and unless we bring it back under British Rail I foresee major problems and major accidents.
Jodie Payne, PontefractThis would bring the country back together in a real way.
Malcolm Hutchinson, North ShieldsBring back British Rail to the people of this country, not fat cat controllers who line their own pockets with over-inflated prices. Profit for the people.
Alan Stewart, FalkirkThe news that Abellio have failed to plan for the loss of trains on its flagship service is the last straw for me.
John Paine, DoverRailways are now used as a cash cow for profiteering. We the people bought and built British Rail only for it to be sold off for profit is an outrage.
Sue Mason-Green, BedfordThis should be for the people, and non profit making.
Stuart Flude, DurhamWe simply must fight for a better life.
Paul Pearson, ShrewsburyWe pay the highest fares in Europe to stand in corridors on late running trains that will not accept tickets from other rail companies. Something is desperately wrong.
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.
Jan Parry, BristolPublic transport should not be for private profit.
Vivienne E Heatley, LondonAnother wonderful institution built by the people for the people. Keep it decent. Keep it affordable!
Jean Tarran, LondonI do not agree with funds going to private shareholders or rail companies being owned by other countries.
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.
Ray Watson, WesterhamThe railways should serve the people, not Network Rail directors.
