MANCHESTER

This line of railway has met with general approbation, and' its ftn-
portance cannot be questioned, traversing, as it will, a lecalit- tetatly
excluded from the benefit of railway communication, though, it may
be slid, (3.'4) continuous town, for a distance of ten milt% and a
densely-populated neighbourhood, the property around which Li ()pan,
fiat, and of a highly favourable character for the e,onstructtol of a
" •

line of railway. -
In addition to the advantage of a direct communication betWelm
the two royal residences at London and Windsor, avoiding the de-
lay and inconvenience of throe different conveyanme, and reducing
the time requisite for the entire journey to thirty minutes, the pre-
posed line will afford to Barnes, Kew, Isleworth, BaOhrlt,
Ascot,
Sunning-hill, and Egham, all abounding with elegant villas and a
wealthy population, an easy access to London, and form the main
trunk for a direct communication to Exeter and the whole
.^t. the
south-west of England. It will also afford a facility to reach himi-
gerford-bridge on the south side of the rifer by the Richmond Rat:-
way, ky means of a branch from Hounslow to Richmond.
The Committee have much pleasure in adding that the surveys are
made, the deposits have been duly paid, the parliamentary contract
signed and completed.

The title of this line sufficiently and correctly explains the ohlect
of the undertaking.
The Birmingham terminus will be placed in Communication with
all the other railways having a elation in that town, and will be
brought as near ae practicable to its centre. Proceeding thence in a
northerly direction, And on the west side of the Lichfield road, it will
pass within a !Short distance of Sutton Coldfield, and to Lichfield, at
the latter of which places there will be a station In commtlnleatiOn
with the projected Walsall lines.
Thence crossing the Trent Valley, near King's Bromley, it will
pursue the course of the Blythe Valley, or by or near to Abbots
Bromley to Leigh, where it will leave the Blythe Valley, and by a
short cutting reach the Tean station on Remington's London and
Manchester line at the junction of the Crewe branch, or by a junc-
tion with whichever of the projected lines to Manchester may be
adopted by Parliament.

The length of the main line, from the point of junotien at Totten-
ham to the London awl Birmingham Railway, will be I l miles ; and
the length of the branch line to Barnet, will be 414 miles. From the
junction with the Birmingham Railway to Chipping Barnet, 914
miles ; front the Decoy (near Brent -street, Hendon), on the proposed
Barnet and North Metropolitan Junction Railway, to the Nortaern
and Eastern Counties Railway, by Stainford•hill, 61( ml'ett
There are no engineering dillieultles tit-ollghout the entire distance.
The line will proceed beyond the range of the Highgate and Hemp-
stead and the branch from the main line to Barnet will follow
the valley of the river Brent to the intended station at Barnet ; thus
the expense of construction will be less than any other metropolitan
line of railway, for the above reason, and because it will pass through
an agricultural district, avoiding all ornamental property ar.d large
collections of houses and buildings.
Upon the completion of this railway, a large and daily-Increasing
population, resident beyond the limits of the metropolitan oinnlbases,
will be largely benefited, and land and agricultural produce, hitherto
affording an inadequate return to their cultivators, will be quad-
rupled in value.

The entire length of the new line to be made will not exceed
thirty-four miles, and the whole will be carried over a most favour-
able country—two-thirds being a water-level.
Sections of a great pertion of the line have been made, and the en-
tire Parliamentary survey will be completed by the 9th ofOctober.
This railway will affordja route from Birmingham to Manchester
eleven miles shorter than by any existing or projected line. It will
also give the best and nearest line between Huddersfield, and Bir-
mingham.
It will also tUrnish a nearer and more direct route from Birming-
ham to the Potteries than any line made or projected by several
miles, assuming any of the Pottery lines to have their termini at Col-
wieh, on the Trent Valley, or at Stafford, on the Grand Junction
Railway ; thus giving to Manchester, and st:so the Potteries, the
shortest, easiest, and most direct route to Birmingham. It will
also give the nearest line between Huddersfield and Birmingham and
Southampton.

$. That this vital
meeting having duly considered the prospectus and
map of the line of the proposed Barnet and North Metropolitan
Junction Railway, and on comparing the same with the Other pro-
jected lines, does most unhesitatingly declare that the proposed Barnet

greater adrantPges than any line of railway hitherto Proposed to
come in the vicinity of Barnet, it being the only one which will afford
to the residents of the town the advantage of a station, and that it
deserves the support of the inhabitants and all others having an in-
terest in Barnet and its vicinity ; tend that a petition be presented in
favour of the line immediately upon the assembling of the Houses of
Parliament ; and this meeting pledges itself to (lather the views of
the Company, and resolves that a Committee be appointed to promote
the object and secure the interest of the town of Barnet.

This railway crosses the projected Leeds and Huddersfield and
Wolverhampton Direct Railway. In the Blythe Valley a station will
be placed, and communication effected, so as to afford to Birmingham
the shortest route by many miles, with Leeds, Huddersfield, Sheffield,
and the northern parts of England. In allotting shares every legi-
timate preference will be given to landholders on the line.
It is obvious that the projected line will afford an ample return to
the shareholders.
For prospectuses, shares, and every information, apply to the
