This line of railway will commence at the junction of the Man-
chester and Birmingham, Chester and Crewe, and Grand Junction
Railways, at Crewe, in the county of Chester, and proceed from
thence through or Lear the towns of Market Drayton, Newport, and
Mifflin], in Shropshire, thence through the flourishing town of Kid-
derminster, to Worcester and Tewkesbury, and to the Bristol Rail-
way at Gloucester. By this means it will form the most direct
route from Manchester, Leeds, Liverpool, Hull, and Chester to the
important ports of Gloucester and Bristol, indeed the most direct
line from the north of England to the Bristol Channel. It. will also,
in conjunction wtih the proposed Hereford and Worcester, and Swan-
sea, Merthyr-Tydvil, and Hereford Railways, form the most advan-
tageous route from Swansea and the iron districts of South Wales,
to Liverpool, Manchester, and Hull.
The line will cross the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Railway at
Shiffnal, and the Shropshire Mineral Railway and the Trent Valley
Union at the thriving town of Newport. It will form a junction
with the two latter railways at Newport, whereby persons and lug-
gage may be conveyed to Stafford, Derby, the midland counties,
Staffordshire lotteries, Sheffield, and Hull; and, in addition to the
carriage of heavy goods from Bristol, Gloucester, Worcester, and
Kidderminster, to Manchester, Liverpool, the whole of the north of
England, and Scotland—will secure a large passenger traffic in the
district through which it passes. A branch will be made ftom New-
port to the important town of Wellington.
The proposed railway will be about 87 miles in length, and be-
tween the two termini of Crewe and Gloucester, will save in distance
at least 20 miles, and the journey can be accomplished, at the pre-
sent rapid rate of travelling, in about two hours. This project as
junction line, connects itself with some of the most important rail-
ways in the kingdom. It also skirts the large, extensive, and densely-
populated iron districts of Shropshire and Staffordshire, and in its
course passes through a rich agricultural country. It must, there-
fore, be obvious that there will be a sufficient traffic to pay a high
rate of interest on the capital required.
There are no engineering difficulties in the country through which
the line is intended to pass, the whole being nearly on a level, and
on reference to the map of country, taken from the Ordnance survey,
which accompanies the prospectus, the line will appear straight, and
will at the same time show the superior advantages it possesses, and
that it cannot be surpassed by any existing or projected lines between
the same termini.
It will not interfere with any ornamental property, and no tunnel-
ling will be required.
Application is intended to be made, in the ensuing session of Par-
liament, for a direct line of railway (of which a survey has been
made) from Southampton to Kidderminster, and by which a ready
communication will be afforded to the most southern ports of England.
The liabilities of the Shareholders will be limited to the amount of
their subscriptions, and interest will be allowed on the deposits and
further calls, from the date of the several payments to the opening of
the line.
prospectuses, with maps and forms of application for shares, can
be had from the Secretary on application at the temporary offices
of the Company, 3, Abehurch-lane, London; from the Solicitors and
Local Agents; also from the following Brokers, viz. :—Messrs. Lyon,
