Iforl,2oile of the London and Brighton Railway, in the parish of
aI,dI,ZY, and runs through Charlwood, Crawley, Held, Heeding,
I:lUsper, and terminates in the town of Horsham.
th:‘l,l, nature of the country through which the Railway passes
geicultural, :the land not of a.very valuable description ; and
dest!gh it terminates in the centre of the town of Horsham, it
le tYs but few buildings.
op l gradients are favourable, the steepest being 1 in 330 feet,
not ~feet in a 'mile. The works are light, the deepest cutting
ejfeeding 24 feet, the hee.viest embankment not exceeding
ram !‘, and these only occur ;al one place. The works upon the
ittriAcane of the ground.
ka„,,,re agriculturallinaprotance of the town of Horsham is well
vantan, and such as fully to entitle it to the conveniences and ad-
altb„ges of a Railwel communication with the metropolis; and,
to,,,,"ugh it is not intended to carry this Railway beyond the
' cd. Horsharr , yet it will ensure the traffic of the surround-
111T,,e"ntrY. This traffic was fully investigated before the Par-
110,sehntarY Committee on the rejected Brighton Line, by way of
to b "arn, awl the reeult fully proved the pecuniary 'advantages
whe leri.ved from a proper Line of Railway to Horshapt ; and,
it Is rt,membered that the present project accomplishee, by
1.6• 41,1 way of 10 miles, all 'that could have been obtained for
ta..441 arid West Sussex by a Railway of 30 miles, the public
from- not fail to be convinced that an ample return will be derived
the vapital expended in this undertaking.
yr,„ll submitting this Railway to the public, the Provisional Corn-
nr '"ee call the particular attention of the proprietors of the
rhton Line to the vst increase of traffic which will thus be
Ight upon their Raailway, which must be conducive to the
-rests of that Company, and render this undertaking one de-
serviag of their cordial support.
T• he requisite Parliamentary notices have been given, and
" plans deposited, for an application to Parliament is the
dung Session.
The Provisional Committee have stated the Capital to be
0,13001. ; but this considerably exceeds the estimated costs.
e,Y have adopted this course to meet any contingency that
O Pit arise, feeling fully satisfied that a traffic can be shown
i:Justify a much greater outlay. The Deposit of 31. per Share
