By this Company it is proposed to supply railway accommoda-
tion, through an independent channel, to all the principal t ,e-ns in
Buckinghamshire, and to irony In the other counties through which
the projected line is to run, hitherto destitute of this now indispen-
sable Mode of transit.
The project known by the name of " The Buckinghamshire Rail-
way and Oxford and Wolverton Junction" is announced in their pro-
spectus as being under the direction and superintendence of the Lon-
don and Birmingham Railway Com patty, as their lessees in perpetuity,
receiving four per cent. ou the outlay, with a conditional arrange-
ment as to the surplus profit.
monopoly of the London and Birmingham Company, which it was
principal object to destroy, is more strongly secured than before, and
the profits which would accrue to au independent line, after payment
of the 4/. per cent. interest, is virtually thrown into their hands.
In addition to this, the arrangement to make use of the termini of
the Loudon and Birmingham Company, together with a considerable
portion of their line, reduces the Buckinghamshire Railway in fact to
a mere extension of the older company, and confers on the latter the
means of absolutely and entirely controlling the traffic; and conse-
quently the profits, of the projected line ; so that the reservation as
to the surplus profits in truth amounts to nothing.
The adoption of the projected Iluckinghamshire Railway by the
London and Birmingham Company proves their consciousness of the
necessty of a railway communication through the country proposed
to be traversed; and to prevent a continuance of their monopoly,
and to secure both to shareholders and to parties locally interested
the benefits of an independent line, the present Company has been
formed, and has met with the strenuous support of many landed pro-
prietors in the counties through which it will pass, who have hitherto
withheld their co-operation trona the Buckinghamshire Railway
Company for the reasons enumerated.
The line will proceed through or near to Uxbridge, by the Valley
of Chalfont, to Amersham and Wendover, and thence to Aylesbury,
by Winslow, to Buckingham. It will take a course from thence
through Brockley and Banbury, by Leamington and Warwick, to
Birmingham, having the advantage of being the shortest route
hitherto proposed between Birmingham and London.
