It will also form a means of communication with the severalpoz
jected lines, to the rising port of Great Grimsby.
It is a remarkable feature in this line, that there is no compett-s,
scheme, nor does it at aklinterfnre with any ornamental or reside:
tial property.
It is not considered essential to enter into the details of traffic;
valua of the lines In the district, ht that respect, is a sufficient test -
its extent, in addition towhich, the railway will become the recipietr
of much of the northern traffic, arising front the numerous branch...!
with whichit IS connected.
