Ian Ashleigh, East GrinsteadAs a daily rail user, this has to happen.
Brian Hutton, DundeeCar culture is killing our planet.
Susan Rees, WhitstableThe fares are a rip-off. It’s a joke. The trains are not very clean for what you pay. Sometimes you have to stand. My son-in-law pays a fortune to travel from Whitstable.
Stephen Noble, WakefieldThe privatised railway costs five times what British Rail cost.
Diane Cox, PenzanceSo good to know there is a movement to do this.
Pippa Smith, BristolI am a full-time support worker, working 42 hrs/week on minimum wage. Put simply, I cannot afford to use the train.
Angela Holland, ManchesterIt is time to re-nationalise British Rail. If it is considered a potentially profitable service, shouldn’t the country have the benefit?
Tony Nicholson, SouthamptonI miss BR. I could travel across the country in slack time for peanuts and now I need a computer just to sort out how to get there and how much it will cost me.
Duncan Harris, Melton MowbrayPrivatisation has been an unmitigated disaster.
Joe Gallagher, GlasgowRe-nationalise all public services.
Carole Wheat, NottinghamI would like to see the rail, water, electricity and gas nationally and not privately owned.
Deb Tetley, LeedsLets take back our trains and make them work for us, not private companies.
Frances PriestAccess to decent affordable transport for all will contribute towards levelling inequality and support collaboration, productivity and a growing economy.
Jemma Lewis, MaidstoneServices are over-priced and unreliable. A profit-based railway benefits the shareholders, never the passengers.
Jo Bain, LondonUnified service, run for the customers rather than profiteering boardmen, able to invest in the tracks and trains.
Oak Weld, ColchesterYes, keep the mega-profits in this country. Come on – it makes sense.
Steve Jackson, WellingPlease bring back British Rail and get rid of South Eastern Trains.
Jack Sellen, LondonI’m fed up with privatisation. It is a con.
Mary Campbell, LetchworthWhy does anyone support profits for individuals rather than the good of all?
Teresa Marshall, GatesheadI wish to join the growing number of people who want to make our train service unified.
Robert Pankhurst, St AlbansPrivatisation of public services has been a disaster (except for the fat cats). Let’s take back as our own.
Sue Winterburn, YorkI am a regular rail user. East Coast line works, returning money to the exchequer not shareholders.
Dave Codling, CheshireI don’t drive so rely on public transport. With the new rises in train and bus fares it is now uneconomical for me to work in my present location.
George Sanderson, LeicesterBring back British Rail.
Gill Boden, CardiffPlease bring back BR.
Andrew Brooke, PulboroughI would vote for any politician who I believed was sincere in promising to re-nationalise the railways.
Sharon Roberts, ColchesterMy father, my granddad, my uncle, my ex-partner all worked on BR. How it has been run and maintained the past few years has been of great concern to me.
Joyce Murray, BlythTo have a division between different train operating companies and the running of the track seems ridiculous.
Brian White, BedfordAs far as I’m concerned all the privatisations made in the 90s have been a disaster. As we all know deep down, profits always come before people.
Peter Hubberstey, PrestonI’m sick of bogus fares and little tricks like split tickets. We want a fair fare system..
