Blackburn, will proceed thence by Burnley across the extensive flag-
stone fields of Worsthorn to Shipley or Bradford, where it will unite
with lines now in existence, including the Leeds and Selby line.

formation for carrying out the above object, and a detailed prospec-
tus will shortly appear ; in the meantime, all communication, includ-

TILE RAILWAY EXAMINER.
A Journal of Practical Engineering stilt! Public Enterprise.
t t Is conceived that the " Railway Examiner" will present many
features to entitle it to the peculiar attention of all who are engaged
in matters of railway enterprise.
First—The contents of the " Railway Examiner," except in the
case of extracts (always acknowledged) from ce temporary publi-
cations, or official documents, will exhibit a cha' ter of originality
which the newspaper press dees not generally present. Every ar-
ticle of news will be carefully re-written, or compiled for the par-
property, in the

available to the promoters of the " Railway Examiner." In both,
permanent rather than ephemeral interests will be the objects of con-
sideration.
Secondly—An important object of the " Railway Examiner" wilt
be to investigate and explain to the public the various features of
the numerous projects which must shortly coma before Parliament
for its decision. To this end they will be carefully divided into
" Groups," as was done last year by the Board of Trade, and by th•
Committees of the Houses of Parliament. A series of articles
under the head of "Railway Groups" has been for a long time in
preparation, by goutletnen experienced in railway matters, and who
have carefully collected the materials which may aid them in direct-
ing the public to a sound and rational conclusion as to the relative
merits of competing schemes.
Thirdly—Measures have been taken to obtain correct information
from all parts of the country as to the progress making by the vari-
ous Companies, towards bringing their respective projects practi-
cally and efficiently before Parliament, which will be exclusively
published in the " Railway Examiner."
