GREAT NORTH of ENGLAND and YORK-
SHIRE and GLASGOW UNION JUNCTION RAILWAY.
(Provisionally Registered.)
Capital 150,0001., in 6,000 Shares of 251. each.
Deposit 21. 125. 6d. per Share.
PRELIMINARY ANNOUNCEMENT.
This railway is intended to commence at or near to the Alne sta-
tion on the Great North of England Railway, to proceed by way of
Aldboreugh, Boroughbridge, and Dishforth, and to terminate at the
Leeds and Thirsk Railway near to Wath, at ajimetion with, and seas
to form an eastern continuation of, the Yorkshire and Glasgow Union
Railway.
The length of the line will be about thirteen miles, and in forming
it three objects are in view :-
Ist. To accommodate Boroughbridge, and a great extent of highly
fertile and productive country hitherto entirely devoid of railway
accommodation.
2d. To form a connecting link between the Great North of Eng-
land Railway, and the Yorkshire and Glasgow Union Railway, and
thereby connect with this project part of the trunk lines from Hull,
Selby, York, Beverley, Marketweighton, Pocklington, Scarborough,
Whitby, Pickering, Halton, &c., and the eastern districts to Carlisle
and the west of Scotland by the Yorkshire and Glasgow Union, which
passes through Bedale, Leyburn, Askrigg, Hawes, Kirkby, Stephen
Appleby, and forming a junction with the Lancaster and Carlise
Railway near Penrith.
3d. To supply the d'strict in question with coal from the pits in
the neighbourhood of Leeds, and from those of Durham by means of
the Leeds and Thirsk Railway and its extension. To afford accom-
modation to the town of Boroughbridge and its locality by connect-
ing it with Carlisle, Durham, Iluil, Ripon, York, Scarborough, &c.,
which this project will do to a much greater extent than would have
been afforded by the Pill-moor Branch of last session from the Great
North of England Railway to Borouglibridge, inasmuch as this line
will give an outlet In both a northern and eastern direction, whilst
that of last session would have afforded merely a northern one.
The coun!ry is level, requiring no tunnel, and very little cutting
or embanking, and the line will consequently be of easy construc-
tion. The cost will be comparatively light, and all residential an-
noyance or injury to property will be avoided.
The saving of distance by this sehqme will, on reference to the
map, be seen to be very considerable, especially with regard to rail-
way communication between the cities of Ripon and York, Wath
being only four miles north-cast of Ripon; and this line, in con-
nexion with the Leeds and Thirsk Railway (which runs
through that city), forming a continuous, as well as the shortest and
best line of railway between Ripon and York.
In the allotment of shares, preference will be given to landowners
and others locally interested on the line.
The names of the Provisional Committee and other particulars will
be published in the course of next week. In the meantime, applica-
tions for shares, in the annexed form, may be made to Wm. Middle-
ton, Solicitor, 34, Commercial-street, Leeds ; or to Messrs. Sudlovr,
Sons, and Torr (the London Agents), 20, Chancery-lane, London.
