The object of this undertaking is to supply railway communication
to the towns and districts lying between the London and Birming-
ham, and the Great Western Railways, giving them the best means
of access to the metro Polis, and connecting them also with the
Northern and Eastern lines of railway, as well as with Oxford and
the South.
The main line will commence from the London and Birmingham
andby passing near Winslow, and
a with the proposed
Junction
Railway, near Harrow, and passim to the north of Uxbridge, will
proceed up the Valley by Chalfont, near Amersham and Chesham to
extenduraeki
ety o,R 13,
Missenden and Wendover, and thence to Aylesbury; from which
place

approaching
Warwickshire and London Railway, near Banbury.
In addia lam to the line above described. it is intended also to con-
struct a Railway from the central station of the London and Bir-
mingham Railway at W.dvertoa to Buckingham, and thence through
Bicester to Oxford; and in connexion with the line here proposed,
the Bedford, and London and Birmingham Company, intend to make
a connecting line between Bedford and Wolverton.

The proposed It uckingharn and London and Birmingham Railway
Company (tor the construction of a line from Wolverton to Bicester)
is amalgamated with this Company.
Accurate surveys of the country have been taken by Mr. Robert
Stephenson, and it has been ascertained that no engineering diftlzulty
of importance presents itself.
The undertaking has already received the sanction and support of
a very large proportion of the Nobility, Gentry, and Proprietors of
land through or near whose property it is intended t..., pass.
It is proposed that these lines should be made with the co-operation,
and under the direction and superintendence of the London and
Birmingham Railway Company; under a lease, in perpetuity, at
four per cent. per annum on the outlay, with a conditional arrange-
ment as to the surplus profits.
It is intended to offer the shares in such proportion as the amount
of capital will allow of, to the holders of shares in the London,
Worcester and South Staffordshire Railway Company, subject to the
approbation of the Committee of Management, with the exception
of such as may be required for parties having local interests.
