This Railway is projected for the purpose of uniting the Rhondda
and Ely Vallies, with the South Waleg Railway, at a few miles dis-
tance from the Port of Cardiff; and to open a new mineral district,
one of the richest and most important in South Wales, which is at
present without the means of transit for its immense and valuable
products.
It will pass through the central portion of the great coal-field of
Glantorganshire, where iron-stone also abounds with the coal in im-
mense quantities, and laying, geologically speaking, nearly flat, and,
obtainable, for the most part, by proper levels. The eoal in addition
to its being of excellent quality for iren snaking as is proved at Mer-
thyr and Aberdeen, is also, like that of those ,distriets, of the very
hest description for steam purposes, being nearly smokeless, although
st,riptioa of coal eejablished for steam purposes over any
inflammable, indeed so pre-eminently is the superiority of this do-
other,
that the demand for it ter exceeds the supply, and promises, aceord
ing to I..ite opinion of the host eminent marine engineers, to
super-
sede all 00ers fir purposes (of steam navigation. This source of
trafile along ?Till afOrd a handsono return for the capital invested,
as has been deter nstrated in every Orgevuxi where even tram-roads or
canals have been C.Mlitrileted to open the mineral resources of ether
less promising eallies in Wales than the .hondda, which is cele-
brated for the abtmdan.ce, quality, and facility of obtaining its pro-
ductions. -
In inexhaustible supply of limestone (so necessary fee the manu-
facture of iron and for agricultural put-Poses) may be °Wined by
means of this Railway, mush nava wad cheaper than by any ether
line.
This line will afford to the increasing postglation of the rich vales
of Ely and Rhondda a much desired communisattion wind the great
market town end port of Cardiff; front wrhouoe, at present, tLek y ma,
be said to be almost excluded.
