This undertaking is projected by influential local interests to supply
blue requirements of the above important district; and a reference to
the map will show that it will also complete the communication be-
tween York, Leeds, and the intermediate towns in the most direct
course with London. The surveys have been made by Sir John Mac-
neill and James Thompson, Esq., and the country is found to be fa-
vourable to the construction of a railway ; and there is, perhaps, no
line of such importance which could be constructed at comparatively
so small an expense as the sum named in the estimate.
The length of the line will be but about thirty-nlne miles ; and by
inean,s of this short link, in connexion with existing project§ from
Nottingham, a saving will bo effected between Leeds and the metro-
polis exceeding twenty-five miles.
It wilt commence at the projected terminus of the Wakefield, Pon-
ihfraet, and Goolo Railway, at Pontefract, and from thence proceed
through Doncaster, Tickhill, and Worksop, to the terminus of the
Nottieghain. Mansfield, and Midland Counties Railway, at Mansfield ;
thereby completing, by means of the York and North Midland Rail-
way, the shortest route from York to Nottingham and London. It
*ill also, by the proposed extension line of the Wakefield, Pontefract
and Goole, from the York and North Midland, near Methloy, form
the nearest line between Leeds, Nottingham, the Midland and South-
ern Counties, and by the Goole and Doncaster line, au uninterrupted
eoireennieation with Goole and the shipping ports of the Humber.
It will also form a means of communication with the several pro-
Joeted lines, to the rising port of Great Grimsby.
It is a remarkable feature in this line, that there is so competing
scheme, nor does it at all interfere with any ornamental or residen-
thtl.tPire°nDeortt coY•nsidered essential to enter into the details of traffic ; the
value of the lines in the district, in that respect, is a sufficient test of
its extent, in addition towhich, the railway will become the recipient
of much of the northern traffic, arising from the numerous branches
with which it %reconnected, and must also become the Grand Trunk

This line is projected by the Norfolk Railway Company and the
Grand Union Railway Company, and it will form a connecting link
between those two lines.
Leaving the station of the Norfolk Company at Brandon, the line
proceeds via Downham Market to Wisbech, and from thence to Spald-
ing, being a distance of about 40 miles. At the latter town it joins
the Grand Union Railway, which continuos via Grantham to Not-
tingham, thus completing a direct and independent line of communi-
cation between Yarmouth and Norwich, and Nottingham and the
manufacturing districts.
The distance between the termini will be as short by the proposed
route as by the Lynn and Ely and Lynn and Dereham lines ; whilst
the traffic between Nottingham, Yarmouth, and Norwich, and the
central, west, and south parts of Norfolk, the north of Cambridge-
shire, and the counties of Suffolk and Essex, being under the control
of friendly Companies, will be secured for this undertaking.
Estimates for the traffic are in course of preparation. In the mean-
time it may be stated that, from the data already furnished respecting
some of the important loca:ities through which the line passes, added
to the fact that it forms part of a direct course of railway communi-
cation between Manchester, and the surrounding manufacturing dis-
tricts, and the ports of Yarmouth and Lynn, there is no doubt an
ample remuneration will be secured for the shareholders.
Satisfactory arrangements have been made with the Eastern
Counties Railway Company in reference to that portion of the line
between Wisbech and Spalding, which has been agreed to be leased
by them from the Wisbech and St. Ives Company.
If the Wisbech and St. Ives Company succeed in their application
to Parliament, the line to be made by this Company will be limited
to that part between Wisbech and Brandon ; and in either case the
two Companies promoting this line have agreed to take a lease of it at
a rental equal to 4 per cent. en the outlay, and a moiety of the sur-
plus profits.
In the allotment of shares preference will be given to the share-
holders of the Norfolk and Grand Union Railway Companies.
Applications to be addressed to Richard Till, Esq., Norfolk Rail-
way Company, Guildhall-buildings ; or to Alfred Eeesten, Esq.,
78, Cornhill.

This line will diverge from the line and the Great Eastern and
Western Railway, near Worcester, and proceeding by Brom-
yard, will end at Leominster, at which point it will unite with the
proposed lines connecting Hereford and Shrewsbury with North
Wales.
The communication by railway between these important towns
and the continuous hop and cider districts has beets entirely left
unprovided for by existing arrangements, and this line is brought
forward under the auspices of the Great Eastern and Western
Railway Company, on the strong representations and request of a
large and most influential body of the landed gentry of the neigh-
bourhood.
