."This railway will connect the east and west coasts, and form a
direct -route from the ports of Liverpool, Fleetwood-olt-Wyre, and
Lancaster, to Newcastle-upon-Tyne. Commencing at Lancaster, it
will proceed up the valley of the Lune, by Kirkby Lonsdale, Sedbergh,
and Kirkby Stephen. and thence by the most practicable line to New-
castle. It will run nearly parallel with the old coach road, which
has hitherto been the principal passenger route from Lancaster to
Newcastle.
It will readily be conceded- that great benefits will flow from a
direct railway communication- between the coal-fields and mining
districts of Durham and Northumberland, and the important towns
and ports of Liverpool, Fleetwood, Newcastle, and Lancaster.
The entire length of thb line II rich in mineral productions—coal
slate, Milestone, marble, and other elements of a great local traffic
*fund, and cannot fail to make this-one of the most remunerative
piejects of the day. A. considerable saving of distance between the
important towns on the terntial is effected over any existing er pro-
jected scheme.
It will be reserved tothe Committee of Management to make suck
alterations in the line, or the amount of capital required, or other-
wise, as may be deemed most advantageous to the interests c ithe
Company. Power will be applied for to allow interest at the rate
of four per cent. on the calls from the passing of the Act to the
opening of the line, as well as to limit the liability of the shareholders
to the amount of their subscriptions only.
