Application will be made to Parliament in the next Session for
an Act to enable the formation of this Railway.
The country, from its level nature, is peculiarly favourable, and
the expense will be propertionably small. The average inclination
will be 1 in 893.
It will open the most ready communication to the north and
north western parts of England, as well as Scotland, and will form
a grand trunk to receive auxiliary communications on all sides.
The distance to York will not exceed the mail coach road, and
will be performed with ease in ten hours;the passengers travelling
along this road greatly exceed those on any other road from Lon-
don, whether by posting or by stages. The immense supplies of
animal and other food coining from the north and east to the me-
tropolis will be *ought in a much improved condition, and at a
greatly reduced expense, as will also the merchandize from Leeds
and the manufacturing districts.
The cost of this Railway from London to York will be under
3,000,000/. The income, after deducting all expenses, will on the
most moderate calculation exceed 400,000!. per annum, paying 14
per cent profit.
The road will commence near Shoreditch Church, and proceed
through Bishop'e Stortford, Cambridge, Lincoln, and Selby, to
York. At Selby it will join the line to Leeds, and at once open a
communication with that most important district.
Applications for Shares of 1001. each (if by letter, post-paid)
may be made to Messrs. Vizard and Leman, Lincoln's Inn-fields ;
and to the Secretaries, at 56, Lombard-street, where also a more
detailed and full prospectus may be had.
A Deposit of 31. per share will be required to be made to Messrs.
Masterman and Co., or Messrs. Esdaile and Co., London; or at
the Company's Bankers, at York, Leeds, Doncaster, Lincoln, Pe-
terborough, Cambridge, Hertford, Norwich, Yarmouth, Manches-
ter, Liverpool, Edinburgh, and Glasgow.
