The pro-rinent advantages. of this sy.tem of Atmospheric traction,
are, that the continuous valve is dispensed with ; roads are crossed
ucon a level without interruption of main; one atmospheric railway
can be intersected by another, 'thus saving bridges, approaches; and
leakage ; and a stationary engine every ten miles is sufficient.
The system combines extreme simplicity with extrethe efficiency,
and that obtained with a small comparative expense in working and
construction.
It is estimated that a saving altogether upon the other plans of
Atmospheric Railways (having the continuous valve) will be nearly
3,0001. per mile ; two:mains or lines can, on this plan, be laid down
for little more than the cost of one, upon the other plan. •
Increased safety is insured, also obstruction and destruction by
weather and other sources are placed beyond probability by 'the
mains being burled, &c.
The objects of the Company are to purchase the Patentee's right
for the .United Kingdom, to grant J licences to Railway and Canal
Companies to use the invention, or lay down the works under con-
tracts with the different Companies ; and, in tile fire pidce, to pro-
cure an experimental line in the neighbourhood of the metropolis, if
found desirable.
The source of income is unlimited, and the expenses, with the ex-
ception of the purchase of the Patents, and laying down the experi-
mental line, must necessarily be merely nominal.
A Model, upon-a scale of one inch to the foot, may be seen at work
on Wednesdays and Thursdays, between "twelve and three o'clock,
at the Company's offices, by application to. the Secretary or Officers
of the Company.
