GREAT NEW SOUTH WALES RAILWAY,
from NEWCASTLE, in the Colony of New South Wales, to
M A ITLAND, and from thence to SAGENIIOE, near the foot of the
Liverpool Range, through or near BLACK CREEK, BELFORD.
CASTLE FORBES, DARLINGTON, SINGLETON, and 3fIJSCLE
TOWN : With power to make branches and extensions, as suitable
to the local wants of the district.
Arrangements were made In the year 1646 for the construction of
this line of railway, it being then considered as one of paramount
importance to the interests of the colony. The temporary check
hat occurred lin the mercantile affairs, of New South Wales, about
that period, cauzekthe promoters to abandon their project until a
revival of conithercial confidence.
The gold discoveries on the estates of several of the land corn-
panics and private proprietors in the Maitland district, have ren-
dered the conveniencies of transit at present existing to be quite in-
adeqaate to the requirements consequent upon this recent develop-
ment of the resources of the colony, and the promoters are, there-
fore, now induced to proceed with their project.
The length of the line will be about 80 miles, and will effect a sav-
ing of nearly 100 miles over the present circuitous route by the River
Hunter, and will furnish communication to the different counties and
districts of Northumberland, Hunter, Durham, Gloucester, Phillip,
Brisbane, and other districts, comprising a population of nearly one-
fourth of the whole colony.
There is already a very large traffic in passengers, goods, cattle, mine-
rals, coals, and agricultural produce along the line, and there can be no
doubt that, by opening the resources of this part of the colony, rick in
agricultural productions, as well as auriferous deposits, and by effect-
ing a saving of distance, time, and expense in the transit, the traffic
win be greatly increased, and will prove highly remunerative; and
the gradients of the line are exceedingly favourable, and the cost of
construction will be unusually low ; the promoters, therefore, have
every confidence of an ample return on the required capital.
Prospectuses, with an influential committee, comprising some of
the leading merchants and gentlemen connected with the colony,
resident there and in this country, will shortly be issued, of whieh
due notice will he given; and, in the meantime, all communications
are to be made to the solicitors, Messrs. Carritt and Osgood, 24,
Baslnghall-street.
