Railways, at Crewe, in the county of Chester, and proceed fl-om
%helve iinvugli or tear the towns of Market. Drayton, Newport, and
t••hifftial, In Shropshire, thence through the flourishing town of Kid-
derminster, to Woretrater and Tewkesbury, and to the Bristol Rail-
way at Gloucester. By this means it will form the most direct .
route from Manchester, Leeds, Llverpool, hull, and Chester to the
in-Tort/int paths of Gloucester ant Bristol, indeed the most direct
lino loin th, north or England to the Bristol Channel. It will, also,
hi wtin the, proposed ncreford and Worcester, and Swan-
s:,a, :der: hyr-Tydvii, and Hereford Railways, form the most advan-
tx4eolis route front Stvaiisoa and the iron distriets of South Wales,
to Liverpool, Manchester, and Hull. .
The line will cross the Shre.wslatry and Birmingham hallway at
Shiqual, and the Shrepshlrc Mineral Railway and the Trent Valley
Union at tit.) thriving town of Newport. It will form a junction
whereby persons and lug-

carriage or heavy I, from Bristol, Gloucester, Worcester, and
lihiderilla3ter, to Maiv..hester, Liverpool, the whole of the north of
and secure a largo pass=ger traffic in the
district through which it passes.
The proposed railway will be about 87 miles in length, and be-
tween tti, two termini of Crewe anti Gloucester, will save in distance
at least 20 tulles, and the journey can he accomplished, itt the pre-
sent rapid rate of travelling, in about two hours. This project as a
junction line, connects itself with some of the most important rail-
ways in the kingdom. It also skirts the large, extensive, and densely
Populated iron districts of Shropshire and Staffordshire, and in Its
course passes through a rich agrioultural country. It must, there-
fore, he envious that there will be a-sufficient traffic to pay a high
tate. of Interest Ott the capital required.
There are no etigtneelng ditlimities In the country through which
the line is Intended to pass, the whole being nearly on a level, and
on:re:tee to the map of country, taken from the Ordnance survey,
w
sccontpanles the , prospectus the line will appear straight, and
will at the saute time show the superior advantages it possesses, and
that it sonnet be surpassed by any existing or projected lines, between
the same termini.
It will not interfere with any ornamental property, and no tunnel-
ling will bs required.
The liabilltbss or the hhsrchold'l•a will he limited to the amount 01
