PROSPECTUS.
The object of this line of Railway is to complete the chain of coast
communication, and form a connexion with lines already established
sr projected with reasonable hopes of success.
It will commence at or near the city of Limerick, and taking a nor-
therly direction, proceed through the counties ofClare, Galway, Mayo,
owl Sligo, terminating at Sligo, by a junction with the Sligo and Ennis-
killen Railway, and accommodating on Its route the important cities and
towns of Limerick, Ennis, Gort, Loughrea, Athenry, Monivea, Tuam,
Ballinrobe, Castiebar, Westport, Foxford, Boffins, Kilalla, Swineford,
Pnreantstown, and Sligo, which town being connected with the north,
oast, and south, by the different lines through Enniskillen, London-
derry, Coleraine, Belfast, Armagh, Newry, Dundalk, Drogheda,
Dublin, Wicklow, Wexford, Waterford, Cork, Killarney, Valentia,
peoiee, and Limerick, the establishment of this line will cause Ire-
land to present a completeness of locomotive communication which
no other country in the world enjoys.

AcTirto ENGINEEIL—EIijah Gallaway, Esq,

This line will comment° at the Long Eaton station of the Midland
Counties Railway, and will proceed in a direct line to or near Castle
Donington, Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Measham, and Market Bosworth to
ffuneeton ; joining, at Market Bosworth, the Birmingham branch,
projected by the Tamworth and Leicester Company, and at Nuneaton,
the projected Coventry, Nuneaton, Birmingham, and Leicester
Railway, at the point where that line crosses the Trent Valley line.
Vas a direct communication will be formed between the important
towns of Nottingham, Newark, and Lincoln on the one side, and
Itirminglism, Coventry, and Warwick on the other side, at the same
Nma supplying a rich mineral and agricultural district with railway
edvantagPs.

A reference to the map will show that this railway will also com-
mand other collateral advantages.
There is no doubt that the proposed railway communication be-
tween Cheltenham and Warwick will be effected, in which case the
proposed line will till up the railway chasm at present existing be-
tween the counties of Gloucester and Worcester, and Nottingham
and Lincoln, and thus form a direct line from the Severn at Glouces-
ter to the ilumber at Great Grimsby. An amalgamation of the Great
Grimsby and Sheffield Junction with the Grimsby Dock Company
being now determined on, a large amount of capital will be expended
in rendering Great Grimsby a port of the first importance ; and it
must be obvious that the traffic to that port, from the district south-
ereat of Warwick, will be vecy great.
The distance saved by the proposed line between Leamington,
Warwick, Coventry, and Nottingham will be about fourteen Mlles
and between Birmingham and Nottingham Chv
lines from Islruliusbutu to Leicester) the saving will be about ten
miles. Being so much the shortest route from Birmingham to Not-
tingham and Lincoln, It must secure the traffic from Birmingham to
Zottingham, Newark, Lincoln, and the port of Great Grimsby ; and
by Joining with the Erewash Valley Railway at Long Eaton, it must
command the traffic from Coventry, Warwick, and the district south
of those towns to Sheffield, Leeds, York, and the north of England
generally. It will also afford a direct communication between Not-
linrsham and the district between Warwick and Worcester, by means
ct the projected Worcester, Warwick, and Rugby, and the Warwick
ind Worcester Railways.
The entire length of the line will be under thirty miles. The Corn-
Pany's Engineer has completed his preliminary survey, and has
nuLht his report, that the character of the country through which
the line 15 luten ded to pass is unusually favourable for engineering
rirPosee.
