This important line of railway Is forty-two miles in length; will
commence at the railway station of the Oxford, Worcester, and Wol-
verhampton Railway at Kidderminster, and will proceed from thence
by way of Tenbury and Leominster to Hereford, where it will join the
Hereford and Monmouth, and all the other lines of railway which
converge from Hereford, and run into the West of England, and the
mmensely populous coal, iron, and copper districts of South Wales,
and the important districts of Central Wales.
The intended railway will, by means of its connexion with the
Derbyshire, Worcestershire, and Staffordshire Junction, and that
portion of the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton which runs
itom Dudley to Kidderminster, complete the great chain of railway
communication between the clothing districts of Yorkshire, the coal
and iron ore districts of Derbyshire and Staffordshire, and the large
mineral districts of South Wales. At Tenbury it will form a junc-
tion with the Worcester and Porthdynllaen intended railway, and
will be the only means of enabling Birmingham, Wolverhampton,
Wedneshury, Walsall, Coventry, Dudley, Stourbridge, and the other
surrounding towns to avail themselves of the great outlet from Eng-
land to Ireland by means of Porthdynllaen,, the future outport for
Ireland.

It will likewise form the nearest route to the north of England,
Manchester, and Liverpool from South Wales, and be a direct line
from the centre of Wales into the Midland Counties. Thus the coals
and other minerals, and the exclusive and constantly increasing iron-
works of Staffordshire, Worcestershire, and Derbyshire, the manu-
factures of Lancashire and Yorkshire, the saltworks of Cheshire and
Worcestershire, and the agricultural produce of Wales. Hereford-
shire, South Shropshire, will have a direct and cheap transit.
This railway is essential to complete the direct East and West
traffic. The traffic of the populous districts embraced by the under-
taking will afford sufficient remuneration to the Shareholders, and a
vast augmentation of revenue which will arise from the through traf-
fic, will make the stock of the Company produce nine per cent.
So convinced was an important Railway Company of the great
traffic which would run upon this line, that they bought up the pro-
moters of a similar undertaking at a considerable expense.
The line is free from engineering difficulties, and gradients highly
favourable. The Directors reserve the power of adopting the atmo-
speric principle and wide gauge, if approved of. The preference will
be given in the allotment of Shares to persons locally interested in
the line, and no Shares will be appropriated except to persons who
Shall glee satisfactory references.
Applications for Shares must be made to the Solicitors of the Com-
pany, or to Messrs. Owens and Greene, solicitors, Newtown, Mont-
gomeryshire ; to Mr. Cancellor, share broker, Cushion-court ;
Messrs. Preece and Evans, 39, Lothbury, London; and to Mr.
Andrew Milligan, Birkenhead.
