The title of this line sufficiently and correctly explains the object
of the undertaking.
The Birmingham terminus will be placed in communication with
all the other railways having a station in that town, and will be
brought as near as practicable to its centre. Proceeding thence in a
northerly direction, and on the west side of the Lichfield road, it will-
pass within a short distance of Sutton Coldfield, and to Lichfield, at
the latter of which places there will be a thtion in communication
with the projected Walsall lines.
Thence crossing the Trent Valley, near King's Bromley, it will
pursue the course of the Blythe Valley, or by or near to Abbots
Bromley to Leigh, where it will leave the Blythe Valley, and by a
short cutting reach the Tean station on Remington's London and
Manchester line at the junction of the Crewe branch, or by a junc-
tion with whichever of the projected lines to Manchester may be
adopted by Parliament.

hno el
ew willliiebetecarbrieedmoaed-eer wailmlonsett feaxveoeuedr-
t h i Ther
ty-
en-
tire Parliamentary survey will be completed by the 9th ofOctober.
Thii railway will afford a route from Birmingham to Manchester
eleven miles shorter than by any existing or projected line. It will
also give the best and nearest line between Huddersfield, and Bir-
mingham.
It will also furnish a nearer and more direct route from Birming-
ham to the Potteries than any line made or projected by several
miles, assuming any of the projected Pottery lines to have their ter-
mini at Colwich, on the Trent Valley, or at Stafford, on the Grand
Junction Railway ; thus giving to Manchester, and a:so the Pot-
teries, the shortest, easiest, and most direct route to Birmingham.
and Southampton.
It will also give the nearest line between Huddersfield and Birming-
ham This railway crosses the projected Leeds and Huddersfield and
Wolverhampton Direct Railway. In the Blythe Valley a station will
the shortest route py many miles, with Leeds, Huddersfield, Sheffield,
be placed, and communication effected, so as to afford to Birmingham
and the northern parts of England. In allotting shares every legi-
timate preference will be given to the landholders on the line.
It is obvious that the projected line will afford an ample return to
the shareholders.
For prospectuses, shares, and every information, apply to the
solicitors, W. Arnold Bainbrigge, Esq., Uttoxeter; or at the Offices
of the Company, No. 1, Moorgete, London.

Trent, where it will run into the Birmingham and Derby Railway,
forming the shortest and best practicable route from Stafford to
Derby. Leaving the Birmingham and Derby Railway at Burton-
upon-Trent, it will proceed along the valley of the Trent by Repton,
Swarkestone, and Shardlow, to the Midland Counties Railway at the
point where that railway forms ajunction with the Derby and Not-
tingham Railway; and thus, by means of these end other railways
in progress, form a complete line of railway communication between
the central towns of Stafford, Derby, Nottin2Jiam, Lincoln, Leices-
ter, Peterborone,am and Boston, on the east, and Shrewsbury, Ches-
ter, and Holyhead, North Wales, andlreland, on the west.
This railway will, therefore, form the only connecting link re-
quired ill time great chain of railway communication from east and
west through the hea • rt of the kingdora uniting the shores of the
German Ocean on ts e east with those of the Irish Sea on the west, and
traversing in its course the rich agricultural districts of the eastern,
Inlillan a, and western counties, and accommodating the important, and
Populous manufactunn
• • g towns of Stafford, Derby, Nottingham, Lei-
ceeter, and Shrewsbury. Put another most important advantage
that will result from the.,
formation of this line will consist in the
fact of its affording, in connexion with the proposed South Union, or
Blanchester and Potteries Railway, by far the shortest and best
route between Derby, Nottingham. Newark, Lincoln, Peterborough,
Leicester, and Loughborough,
and the exteusive and populous dis-
tricts of the Staffordshire Potteries, Macclesfield, Stockport, and
Manchester. By the proposed line the distance between Nottingham
and Derby and Manchester ‘ will be at least from 15 to 20 miles less
then
m
by the present circuitous route 1 y Sheffield.
The traffic on this line must necessarily be equal, if not impeder,
to that of any line in the district.
The length of the line will be about 33 miles, through a country
presenting no difficulties ' of more than an ordinary kind for its con-
struction.
The capital proposed to be raised is 600,000/., in shares of 201.
each, upon which a deposit of 2/. 2s. per share must be paid upon the
allotment. No call will be made until the Act is obtained, and no
subscriber will be liable beyond the amount of his deposit until the
Act is obtained, and then not beyond the amount of his subscription ;
and the usual power will be taken to allow interest at four per cent.
from the time of payment upon each call until the opening of the
line.

Total distance from London to Portsmouth.... .• •. .. 73 miles.
• From Chilgrove a line of seven miles will be constructed, and
which will place Chichester in direct communication with London.
The distance between Chichester and London by this route will be
• 62 miles.
Trains will run direct between London and Chichester, without
stopping at Chilgrove.
Inasmuch as the existing line of railway to Dover branches off
• from the London and Brighton Railroad at Reigate, this projected
line will open up a communication by railroad between Portsmouth
and Dover.
From so inspection of the map, it will be seen that the Redhill
station, near Reigate, lies nearly in a direct line between Ports-
mouth and Chatham, and in pursuing the line of communication
to the last-mentioned naval and military depot, this line will pass
through or near to the towns of Bletchingley, Godston, Limpstleld,
Westerham, Seven Oaks, Ightham, Town Mailing, Wrothaus, Off-
ham, Snodland, Lower Hailing, and Wouldham.
The distance between Chatham and Reigate will involve the
making of 31 miles of railroad, and the line of railroad between
Portsmouth and Chatham will extent over 82 miles.
To the naval and military establishments of this kingdom the
construction of this projected line will afford the most important fa-
cilities in the transit of troops, stores, baggage, &c. &c., diminishing
the tardy course of communication which at present necessarily
exists between Portsmouth and Chatham, at present•usually extend-
ing over the space of two days, and placing them in that direct com-
munication with each other which, in two hours, or thereabout,
will enable the journey between them to be made.
The formation of a direct line of rail way between Portsmouth
and Chatham will afford the opportunity of establishing, by the
electric telegraph, that celerity of communication so important to be
obtained between places of national importance.
The warm support of the principal landowners on the greater part
of the line is pledged to this undertaking.
The Provisional Committee abstain from making any special re-
ference to the contemplated profit to result from carrying into effect
this undertaking, feeling convinced that the extent of traffic through
the populous and rich districts over which this line and its branches
are projected to pass is sufficiently known, and is decisive of the
inutility of all comment in that respect.
