That being said, I am not convinced that renationalising the railways will be the panacea that it is often touted as. I think that we do suffer a bit of rose-tinted spectacles when we look back at BR, particularly in regard to ticket prices and reliability.
That being said...if Corbyn promised to bring back BR Blue/Grey and Slamdoor third rail units...I could be persuaded to change my mind.

I liked the old slam doors, one of the few sounds I like and miss. Ticket prices were so cheap I would go every where unlike now the robbing bastards, ok reliability was not perfect but hey its still not perfect and when you have to change from one company to another its a bloody nightmare!
Jeremy Corbyn dose have my support to re-nationalist the railways.
