THE HUDDERSFIELD AND EAST AND
WEST COASTS DIRECT RAILWAY,
onneeting Liverpool, Manchester, Huddersfield, Barnsley, Goole,
Great Grimsby, and Hull ; with a communication to the Metropolis,
from or near the Cudworth Station of the North Midland Railway.
(Registered Provisionally.)
Capital. 1,000,0001., in 50,000 Shares of 201. each.
Deposit 21. 2s. per Share.
In compliance with the Standing Order of the House of Lords.
The ebjezts of this undertaking are—first, to establish one con-
Moons. and a more direct and shorter line of railway eommuniaa-
don between Liverpool, Minehester, Huddersfield, Barnsley, Goole,
Areat Grkres*. and Hull, than at present exists, or is proposed by
poly other schemes now before the public ; secondly, to give the be-
Audit of ranweys to several populous and important intermediate
!places now unprovided therewith ; thirdly, to afford increased fa-
Atilitiee to transit to the whole intervenit", district • and fourthly, to
seen a communication from Huddersfield, southward, with the me-
tropolis.
'file Legislature having, during the recent session, sanctioned the
' making of a railway from Manchester to Huddersfield, by the Sad-
lieworth and Marsden Valleys, a communication is thereby secured'
oetwlxt the port of Liverpool and Huddersfield ; a similar communi-
tattoo is now called for with the Eastern Coast, and in order to ac-
templish the same, It is therefore proposed to make a line, corn-
anteing at, or near, the station in Huddersfield, of the Huddersfield
and Manchester Railway, packing through the Kirkheaton and Kirk-
burton Valleys, by way of, or near Barnsley, to or near the Cud-
worth statlou. of the North Midland Railway, there forming a junc-
tion with that railway. (by.which a communication with the metro-
polis will be obtained), and thence proceeding to Goole, Great
Grimsby, and Hull, by the nearest practicable routes. In order to
effect the required objects, at as little expense, and lessen the dis-
tance as much as possible; liberty is reserved to form junctions with
May other existing or projected railways.
On reference to a map, it will be seen that the construction of
'the proposed line, with, the existing and projected railways, will
attain r.ot on'y the several objects before stated, but also that it will
pus through, or near, several of the most extensive and celebrated
noel-gelds, beds of stone,-auirl limestone, and other mineral districts,
.in, S'ae West Riding of Yorkshire.
"It is impossible, in the limits of a prospectus, to enumerate or
.estimate the benefits to be derived from this undertaking; making
Huddersfield the centre of communication; between the two seas,
uniting it by means of the Huddersfield and Manchester Railway to
Liverpool on the west ; and by'the proposed line, to the three ports
of Goole, Great Grimsby, and Hull, on the east; and the line raising
through a densely-populated commercial and manufacturing part of
the kingdom, as well as a highly-cultivated agricultural district, will
Afford a ready transport to the natural productions of each locality ;
added be which, it Is well known that considerable portions of such.
manufacturing districts have hitherto been very inadequately sup-
plied with coal, and also that there is a daily increasing demand by
use outporta of that article for exportation ; whilst on the other hand
the superabundant produce of the rich agricultural districts of York-
shire and Lincolnshire, bordering upon the line, are in equal demand
du' the manufacturing population.
• The hurnense traffic', both through and lectl, which must pass upon
the line, will afford ample remuneration to the capitniist.
A greet part of the line will pass through a country favourable for
jhe construction of a railway, and the remainder presents no difficul-
es of a serious character. In the construction of the line, every en-
deavour will be made to cause the least possible infringement on the
rights or claims of existing railways, or injury to private property.
• A portion of the 'shares *ill be reserved, at • the discretion of the
Cahmittee, for such railway companies at this line may form junc-
tions, or be connected with. •
, The natality of each Shareholder will be restricted by Act of Par-
liament to the amount of ,htsl subscription ; and power will be taken
11Y the Act to; allow interest. at the rate of 41. per centum per an-
num upon the paid-up capital, from the date of each payment until
the completion of the railway.
