Christopher Harrison, WarringtonBring back a rail that is not just for profit, but for the people who have to use these services.
David Massie, AberdeenFingers crossed.
Steve Parkin, LeedsThe privatised rail company bosses are boasting that many more people are using the railways since privatisation. That’s because the road network is overcrowded.
Frances Jones, PerthshirePrivate companies take profit and run down quality. Nothing has ever been as good as British Rail.
Dan Girard, Newcastle Upon TyneBritish Rail is best for Britain.
Daniel Illingworth, BradfordIt’s time to end the naked profiteering of the privatised railways and run them for the benefit of those who use them.
Alison Rodgers, RotherhamWe spent one and a half hours on a cold (we could see breath), wet (water dripping onto seats and swimming over the floor), and late train on Sunday.
Claire Murphy, BexleyheathSave the taxpayer money. No more giving out huge subsidies to be passed out to private rail company shareholders.
Ali Kheradnejad, NuneatonThe private sector can work side by side with national rail service but privatising everything in this country means we are selling our country.
Jen Tierney, SouthportIn these days of overcrowded roads and polluting automobiles, we need an affordable, clean and comfortable rail network. Money should be ploughed into providing this.
May Loose Jamal,I heart British Railways.
Robert Mills, NewburyAs a former rail worker I don’t believe privatisation works. Railways should be a service not a business
Teresa White, FlitwickMy daughter commutes to London daily. She pays almost £1000 a month to stand, herded like cattle. Privatisation means profit first, people second. Wake up Britain.
John Hulstrom, HarpendenThe railways provide a social service and are not just a means of making large profits for private rail operators.
Thomas Glenn, Newcastle-upon-TyneSomething has to be done to sort out the mess of our railways. My train was late by 6 minutes and the connection was allowed to go because it was another company.
Jon Smith, BristolTrain fares are way too overpriced.
Audrey Jones, LondonBring back the rail network as it was when my Dad worked on it. It was cleaner and more efficient and family affordable.
Kulvinder Bhogal, DerbyI want things to be back the way they used to be. A rail network for the people and not to make fat cats fatter. Above all, I want rail prices to be reasonable again.
Shannon Kilday, GlasgowThis scrappy service is not worth the amount of money I spend on it.
Julie Gossage, High WycombeRegular peak time cancellations, short formations leading to dangerous overcrowding, increased fares. It’s totally unacceptable!
Tim Hatcher, Chelmsford.It never should have been privatised.
Joe DiamondGood luck with the campaign! As a commuter I thank you for your efforts.
Mark Jordan, LondonTake the Railways out of private hands.
Daphne Hibberd-Franks, LeedsWe should be called travellers not customers and the railways should be run for the benefit of us all, not just for shareholders.
Douglas Coutts, NottinghamBritish Rail, British Coal, British Steel. Britain works only for the nation when its jewels belong to the nation, not to private shareholders.
Denis Watterson, OtleyPrivatisation has been a very expensive mistake. These companies invest next to nothing and cream off great profits.
Bill Tymms, LeedsI support the idea of keeping railways in public ownership. Too much profit is taken out by shareholders and not kept in the rail industry for future improvements.
Gordon Seaman, HavantGet rid of the foreign investors, and use the money we give to despots in other countries to run it.
Steve Hardy, RhylBring back nationalisation to reduce fares and generate more revenue for the Country.
Colin O’Connor, MaidstonePrivatisation has failed. It was always going to fail. Its time to finish this foolish experiment and return the railways to the people.
