PROSPECTUS.
This railway will commence by a junction with the lines of the
Eastern Counties, the Lynn and Ely, and the Ely and Huntingdon,
Railways, at the city of Ely, and proceed thence, via Mildenhall, to
Bury St. Edmunds, forming there a junction with the railway from
that town to Ipswich, now in course of construction.
The town of Bury St. Edmunds and the adjacent districts, and all
the country through which the line will pass, have for generations
drawn their supply of coals, timber, deals, wine, oil-cake, tar, flag-
stones, and other general merchandise, from the port of Lynn, and
have transmitted thither their own corn, flour, wool, fruit, and
other agricultural produce, for shipment to the northern markets.
While the proposed line will affect the local object of preserving
the mercantile connexion that has ,so long subsisted between the
county of Suffolk and the port of Lynn, it will effect the national
one of affording to the ports of Ipswich and Harwich, and the im-
portant towns of Colchester and Bury St. Edmunds, a direct com-
munication with Lancashire, Yorkshire, and the north, and, by
means of the Ely and Huntingdon, and the proposed Rugby and
Huntingdon Railways, with Birmingham and the west. From
these sources a most ample return on the Capital required for the
undertaking may be confidently relied on.
The line is singularly easy of construction, the estimated cost. in-
cluding every contingency,' being little above 8,0001. per mile ; it
will not interfere with ornamental grounds of any kind, and it is not
'anticipated that any opposition will be offered by the landowners.
The Provisional Directors are to be at liberty to take all such
measures as they may deem requisite for obtaining the necessary
Powers to construct the line or any part thereof, with such branches,
extensions, or alterations, as they shall be advised to adopt ; and for
such powers, or any of theta, they arc to have power to inc."eass the
amount of the capital, to lease or sell the line to, or amalgamate the
same with, the Lynn and Ely, Ely and Huntingdon, and Lym: and
Dereham Railway Companies, or any or either of them, or any other
company or companies.
It is proposed to raise the capital by issuing 10,000 shares of 20/.
each, a deposit. of 21. 2s. per share (in compliance with the Standing
Orders of Parliament) to be paid on allotment.
There will be an interval of two months between the calls, and not ,
• more than 5/. per share will be called fur at one time.
A tiitscribera' Agreement and Parliamentary

The proposed railway will commence at Rugby, on the London
and Birmingham Railway, the terminus of the Midland Counties
and Trent Valley Railways, and the point to which several other
projected railways converge, and will proceed through or near to
Leamington, Warwick, Stratford-on-Avon, Evesham, Tewkesbury,
and Cheltenham, to Gloucester. The length of the line will b.:
about 56 nines.
The advantages that will result from the construction of this liae
are numerous and highly important, and such as cannot fail to secure
a very large amount of local and through traffic, and a highly-re-
munerative return upon the capital invested. By means of existing
and proposed railwa3 s, it will form a complete chain f railway com-
munication between the whole of the midland and north-eastern
counties ofEngland, the populous cities and towns before-named, and
the southern and western districts, and thus bring Leicester, Not-
tingham, Newark, Lincoln, Gainsborough, Great Grimsby, and Hull,
Into direct communication with the favourite and fashionable spas of
Leamington and Cheltenham, the richly-productive and far-famed
Vale of Evesham, and the seaports of Gloucester, Bristol, Plymouth,
and Falmouth, and those of South Wales.
The inhabitants and visitors of the much-frequented watering-
places of Leamington and Cheltenham, will thus obtain a direct line
between those resorts, instead of the present circuitous route through
Birmingham, affording that facility of intercommunication which
has long been ardently desired ; and it will also afford the utmost fa-
cility of access to the innumerable visitors who, attracted as well by
the beauty of the scenery as the memory of Shakspeare, annually
resort to Stratford-on-Avon.
To those passengers from the east and north-east, direct to Glou-
Gloucester, the line from Tewkesbury, cutting off the angle of the
Birmingham and Gloucester Railway to Cheltenham, will afford a
great accommodation, and a saving in distance of at least eight miles,
besides the delay of the stoppage at Cheltenhath.
At Tewkesbury it will also form a junction with the proposed line
from that place to Malvern, affording the most direct communication
to the numerous visitors to the magnificent scenery and invigorating
atmosphere of the celebrated Malvern-hills.
To the inhabitants of the ancient and populous borough of Tewkes-
bury, this portion of the proposed line will prove Immensely advan-
tageous ; situated within ten miles of the important city and port of
Gloucester, they have nevertheless to travel by the present railway
route nearly twice that distance, an inconvenience which has
already materially affected the trade, and prejudiced the interests of
the town. The proposed line, running close to the town, will remove
this great inconvenience, and restore its trade to its former state of
prosperity.
The value of this line to the city and port of Gloucester cannot
be too nighly estimated, as it will not only open to it immeto e
sources of traffic from the whole of the eastern and north-eastern
counties, but will very. materially lessen the distance between it
and Birmingham; Wolverhampton, and South Staffardshireonaking
Gloucester still more securely the nearest and most accessible outlet
for the whole of that immensely productive manufacturing region ;
and it is impossible to conceive any project better calculated to
advance the interests of Gloucester, than one capable of effecting
that object.
This line will also form an important junction between the London
and Birmingham and Midlands Railways, and the Bristol and
Gloucester Railway, and constitute the highway for the traffic of the
former, and of all the north-eastern railways, to the proposed Man-
chester and Southampton Railway at Cheltenham; and the through
traffic from the latter source alone is expected to be very great.;
It will thus have the effect of connecting the ports of the eastern
and north-eastern with those of the western and southern coasts ;
of affording the most direct and convenient access from the north
and east to the vast mineral regions of South Wales, and of opening
new markets for the rich products of the fertile valleys of the Avon
and Severs, and the air) icultural districts of Warwickshire and Wor-
cet;tershire, in the manufacturing towns and ports of the north.
Tlit line will be easy of construction, traversing, as it.does, through
nearly tisi whole length, the valleys of the Avon ai:d Severn. The
towns throl.7ll which it will run are very populous, anal the country
of the richest /description ; and the local traffic will con.gequently be
very great in add.ition to the through traffic, which on Web a e
must necessarily be very extensive.
The Provisional Co or any ptZrt of
amalgamate with any ,other company as to the whole
-unittee reserve to themselves the pea,
to
the line, and to vary or efftend the tine and to Increase or dimin.sh
the capital accordingly, if th cored expedient.
The capital proposed to be ;aised is 1,000,6001., in shares of 201,
upon which a deposit of 21. 25. per share must be paid upon allot-
ment.
The liability of the subscribers( will be limited by the Act, t the
amount of their respective subscriPt:ons to the capital stock, o and
power will be applied for In the Act to allow interest at the rate of
4/. per cent.per annum on the amount of the deposit, and upon the re-
spective calls, from the date of each paymetlt until the opening of the
line.
Tile Subscribers' Agreement and the Parliamentary Contract will
be required to be duly executed when the bankers' receipts are ex,
changed for certificates of scrip, of which due notice will be given ;
and the deposits paid by persons making default in due execution of
the Subscribers' Agreement and Parliamentary Contract within the
time to be limited by such notice, will be absolutely forfeited.
Fonns of application for shares, prospectuses, and a map of the
line, may be obtatiled from the Solicitors, or the Secretary, at the
Offices of the Company, 2S, Essex-street, . Strand, London, or troin
any of the undermenticamd Sharebrokers ; but no application will bs
attended to unless accompenied by a reference to one of the Provi-
sional Committee, the Solicit Ors, or a Banker.

This line will diverge from the line of the Great Eastern and
Western Railway, near Worcester, and proceeding by Brom-
yard, will end at Leominster, at which point it will unite with the
proposed lines connecting Hereford and Shrewsbury with North
Wales.
The communication by railway between these important towns
and the continuous hop and cider districts has been entirely left
unprovided for by existing arrangements. and this line is brought
forward under the auspices of the Great Easteris and Western
Railway Company, on the strong representations and request of a
large and most influential body of the landed gentry of the neigh-
bourhood.

The object proposed is to make a direct communication between
Leominster, Bromyard, and Worcester, which latter town has always
been the natural market for the produce of these districts, end to af-
ford the inhabitants the most direct communication with London, as
compared with other lines, by upwards of 30 miles.
No person will be liable for more than his deposit till the act Is ob-
tained, and power will be applied for to allow interest at 41. per cent.
on all calls from the time of their respective payments, as well as to
limit the liability of the shareholders to the amount of their subscrip-
tions.
Applications for Shares, in the annexed form, to be made to the
Provisional Committee, at the Office, 5, Gresham-street, London,
or Messrs. John Shewell and Son, sharebrokers, Tokenhouse-yard ;
