Railway and other Companies•

BRECON AND 11.IERTRYR.

It was announced that the capital necessary to
complete this line by a junction with the Taff Vale
had been secured, and in the course of a few weeks
trains were expected to run direct from the Vale of
Neath Railway at Merthyr, through Cyfarthfa and
,Cefn to Brecon. When these junctions were com-
pleted it was believed that there would be a large
increase in the traffic from South Wales to Lanca-
shire, Liverpool, and other northern counties.

CARNARVONSHIRE.

The traffic on this company's line, which had
been recently opened, averaged per mile per
week, and it was expected that the returns would
show a gradual increase.
