I'm going to be quite sad when the #GWR branding goes away in favour of #GreatBritishRailways. It'll be the end of an era!

A new dawn for Britain’s railway? The case for radicalism | Morning Star https://morningstaronline.co.uk/article/new-dawn-britains-railway-case-radicalism

Nationalise the lot, including the rolling stock leasing companies, and bring back catering, cleaning etc from outsourcing. End peak pricing and introduce cheap monthly passes, as in France and Germany. make regional rail free (cf. Luxembourg).
Stop siphoning off money to privateers and prioritise a radical modal shift, for people and planet.
