The object of this undertaking is to supply railway communication
to the towns and districts lying between the London and Birmingham
and the Great Western Railways, giving them the best means of ac-
cess to the metropolis, and connecting them also with Birmingham
and the north-west of England, with the eastern lines of railway,
with Oxford and the south, and with Worcester and Wales.
The main line will communicate from the London and Birming-
ham Railway, near Harrow, and, passing to :the north of (Jxbridge,
will proceed up the Valley by Chalfont, near Araersham and Chesham,
to Missenden and Wendover, and thence to Aylesbury, from which
place it will extend to Buckingham, and, approaching Brackley, will
terminate by a junction with the proposed Warwickshire and London
Railway, near Banbury. has connexion with this part of the line, it
is proposed to improve the communication between Aylesbury as 3
London by taking a direct line from Aylesbury to Tring.
In addition to the line above described, it is intended also to con-
struct a railway from the station of the London and Birmingham
Railway, at Bletchley, through Bicester, to Oxford. From Bletchlev
to Bedford a railway is in course of construction by the Bedford and
London and Birmingham Company, and from Bedford conasnunica•
thins eastward are proposed.
The proposed Buckingham and London and Birmingham Railway
Company is amalgamated with this Company.
Accurate surveys of the country have been taken by Mr. Robert
Stephenson, and it has bean ascertained that no engineering difficu ty
of importance presents itself.

tion and under the direction and superintendence of the London and
Birmingham Railway Company, under a lease in perpetuity, at four
per cent. per annum onthe outlay, with au equal division of the sur-
plusprofits.
