Niall Garner, WithamInability to run a rail franchise. Lack of investment.
Oliver Steward, NorwichStop shareholder profits.
Mark Campey, HarrogateWhere I live the rail network is primitive, i.e. diesel trains every half an hour between Leeds and York.
Wilson Smeaton, WoolerRailways in countries many times the size of Britain, considered to be ‘developing’, are unified and run primarily to serve the public, People before profit, please.
Simon Castle, LondonNow.
Albert Clauson, LondonIt really does just seem the sensible option when so many rail companies offer such a poor service and unpredictable prices.
Robin Evans, PooleIt cannot happen too soon to simplify travelling in this country.
Andrew Byers, NewportIt should never have been sold in the first place.
Angela Sansam, HarrogatePrivatisation has been a complete disaster and has definitely not brought benefits for rail users.
Colin McDonald, Herne BayNot just re-nationalisation, but as part of an integrated public transport system tasked with reducing road traffic – and under its real name, BRITISH RAIL.
Ian Johnson, SelbyWe must make sure that it is a new British Rail with the right people running it, not like the people we had before.
Royston Hocking, Tunbridge WellsGive it back.
Glen Arnold, RugeleySafety/customer service and limitless profit simply don’t mix.
Richard Firth, North ShieldsAs the son of a railwayman please restore British Rail to being one national company.
Iain WoodfieldA great place to start. Then we can see about bt and the other utilities.
Steven EvansThe trains are overcrowded, smelly and dirty, which is a nice way to start my journey to work.
Laken Walker, HerefordIt was better when British Railways ran the system. The liveries and prices were great. The government should listen to the people and not the franchisees.
Phil Davison, Stratford-upon-AvonI’m with the campaign. Bring back BR.
Judith Joy, SkiptonPrivatisation only works for the owners and their shareholders. Return to BR now.
Clifford Salmon, LlanfyrnachBring back the old branch lines as well.
Vera Green, MacclesfieldServices before profit.
Eddie Kelly, PeterboroughI cannot believe that it is appropriate for German and French nationalised rail companies to run British Rail, while our own success stories, like East Coast Trains, cannot.
Chris Yong, St AlbansRailways for the benefit of people and the country, not for private profit.
Hans Fried, LondonLet the people own the service industries, rather than allowing businessmen to take the profits.
Michael Rands, HullMake these companies run by the people and shared by the people.
Ricky MillingI would love to go to explore England more during the weekends, but the price of travel just stops me. This is why rural towns and villages are closing down.
Dean Bell, Retfordit is time to take our core industries away from the thieves and fat cats and restore them to the public sector. People before profits. Off with their heads.
Rosemary Blake, LondonHow much more can the ordinary person take? Let down by politicians and bankers and held to ransom by the greed of the people running virtually everything else.
Richard Fryett, LittlehamptonGuards are important for passenger safety and raising revenue. It is not just about making money for your shareholders.
Joan How, LutonMy father worked for British Rail from 1947 until 1958 when he was made redundant due to privatisation. He was devastated.
