Fund security officers on trains

What the petition asks
For safety of the public, to introduce security onto trains due to the rise in attacks and concerns about stabbings, as we have security within the train station but not always directly on the train during the journey.
There is an increase in attacks happening on trains in the UK. As a citizen and a parent I would like to live in a country where it is safe to travel without the fear of attack.
