Fed up of waiting for trains.

Tomos Jones, Ruthin

These private companies care nothing for your pocket, and increasingly less for your safety.

Amanda Pulsford, Hastings

Rail Franchising has hurt the people and the DfT is corrupt

Gary Ortiz, Rocky Point

Trains becoming overcrowded. Operating companies have supplied new rolling stock but there is a lack of decent luggage space on long distance trains.

John Lintern, Plymouth

Just bring British Rail back.

Patricia Ekins, Sheffield

First class carriages may as well all be standard class, especially when you don’t get everything advertised.

Kassra Yazdani, Lancaster

Railways must be nationalised. They should never have been privatised. It’s a service not a business.

Daniel Sargent, Newcastle-upon-Tyne

We can’t afford train tickets any more.

Nathan Roberts, Swindon

Re-nationalisation is the only way (Rail, Utilities, Royal Mail etc.)

Darrell Roberts, Swindon

It’s too important to be run for private profit.

Nora Ramage, Glasgow

A rail service where passengers are valued, instead of being ripped off to line the pockets of the already obscenely rich.

Hilary Hunt, Market Overton

Let’s get cars off the road with affordable rail travel for all – an infrastructure investment.

Mark Vickers, Chippenham

I knew British Rail from years ago and a lot has changed, not all for the better.

Jan Van ‘T Zand, Kiltarlity

Please bring back the nation’s railways. We need to reach rural areas. People will volunteer to help get it back up and running.

Catherine Davies, Richmond, Yorkshire

This action is long overdue.

Paul Buckley, Leeds

Give us back our railways from the fat cats that are only in it to filter the good parts. Get all the land back from their pals in government. Give it back to the public.

William Docherty, Greenock

Bring the rail system back to the people. Make it fairly priced so that low income people can travel too. Ban HS2 and concentrate on the people that matter.

Carole Hadley, Cornwall

As you can see, Plymouth and Cornwall are at the backend of beyond according to those who run the railways. Anything south of Bristol does not exist. Enough said.

Christine Cunningham, Plymouth

We the public are sick of private companies ripping off customers. Bring the rail network back under public accountable ownership.

Robert McArdle, Coventry

Money is being wasted paying dividends to shareholders rather than being invested in the infrastructure.

Michael Church, Dewsbury

Stop crippling your own workforce by making it more difficult and expensive to get to work.

Ian Sharman, Norwich

Let’s sort this out so that we aren’t paying different amounts on different lines for the same journey (Birmingham to London for example).

Alison Hall, Warwick

I am passionate about re-nationalising British Rail.

Terry Melbourne, Liverpool

Service for the benefit of the people, not for the profit of minority.

Douglas Thain, Dundee

Private greed, public misery.

Mary Stewart, Stevenage

National transport has to be in national hands.

Sebastian Lexer, Glasgow

I hate privatisation, apart from anything else, the liveries are awful.

Malcolm Spinks, Loughton

All service companies should never have been privatised.

Kate Rowland, Tywyn

I am fed up with stupid pricing and restrictive tickets, which just line the pockets of transport conglomerates like Arriva.

John Hurley, Gloucestershire

Reverse everything done by Thatcher.

Ben Gibbons, Bristol
