This railway is intended, by means of a junction with the Edin-
burgh and Hawick and the Caledonian, and Caledonian Extension
lines, to form a direct communication between Newcastle and Edin-
burgh and Glasgow. Starting from the Newcastle and North Shields
Railway station at Newcastle, the main line will proceed northward
by Coxlodge, and thence, by nearly a straight line, in the direction of
Ponteland and Betsey, by Lislesburn to Woodburn on the Reed,
whence it will follow the course of that river, passing Horsely, Bird-
hope, Woolaw, Cateleugh, and Whitelee, to Carter Fell, where the
Border will be crossed by a tunnel into Scotland, and so on to
Hawick, where it will join the before-mentioned lines from that town
to Edinburgh and Glasgow.
By this line the distance by railway between Newcastle and Edin-
burgh will be very materially shortened, whilst it will form the
shortest and (except by the very circuitous route of the east coast
line) the only railway communication from Newcastle to Glasgow.
It is also intended, by a branch from the main line at Woodburn,
down the Valley of the North Tyne, to join the Newcastle and Car-
lisle Railway near Ilexham, and thus, by the lines now proposed to
be made, to form a direct communication from London to Scotland,
by the midland and shortest route.
It will be observed, that the terminus at Newcastle has been
altered ;—this has been done after mature consideration, and with the
view of affording to the proposed line the additional facility of ship-
ment, by means of the tunnel which the Newcastle and Shields Rail-
way Company are under engagements, by their Act, to make from
their line to the Quayside, and of the proposed branch from that line,
at Percy Main, to the intended Docks at Coble Dean.
The union which has just been effected between the North Tyne
Junction, and the Newcastle, Hawick, Edinburgh, and Glasgow
Junction Railway Companies, gives to the united Company the
countenance and support of nearly the whole of the landed pro-
prietors, as well as of the owners and lessees of the extensive coal-
fields and ironworks in the districts through which the proposed lines
will pass.
Amongst the various sources of revenue which will accrue to the
proposed line, the following may be briefly adverted to :—Facilities
will be afforded for the transit of lime and manure to, and of agricul-
tural products from, the extensive and valuable districts of North-
umberland, stretching in a north-westerly direction from Newcastle
to the Scottish Border, and the fertile counties of Roxburgh, Selkirk,
Peebles, and Lanark ; whilst the transport of live stock from the
same districts will be is an especial degree facilitated by this line,
since the roads, used for generations by the Scottish drovers, will be
in immediate contact with it for a considerable portion of its length.
, The supply of coal to the populous manufacturing districts of Scot-
land, including the towns of Hawick, Jedburgh, Kelso, Melrose,
Galashiels, Peebles ,Lanark, &c., has become an urgent necessity.
And the proposed line, proceeding as it does from the extensive coal-
fields of the south-eas portion of Northumberland, and through
the hitherto unapproachable seams of coal up the course of the Reed,
will become the principal means of supplying it, and thus derive an
abundant source of revenue from its transit ; as a proof of which,
coals are at present shipping, in considerable quantities, from New-
castle to Glasgow, through the Caledonian Canal, at heavy tonnage
rates, far exceeding the cost of transit by the proposed line through
the entire distance from Newcastle to Glasgow.
An important feature, presented by this undertaking, is the de-
velopment which will thereby be afforded of extensive beds of
minerals in the districts' of the North Tyne and Reed, especially of
limestone and ironstone, the latter of groat richness and superiority,
for the manufacture of which extensive -works are now in operation
at Hareshaw and Ridsdale, and others are projected and in course of
erection, the entire produce of which would be conveyed by the
proposed line to Newcastle, for consumption and shipment
By means of this line, the Tyne will become the most expeditious
and economical place of shipment for all that portion of the manufac-
tures of Glasgow, and other ninsmfacturing towns before-mentioned,
intended for the eastern coast of England and the northern ports of

Europe.
Lastly, the passenger traffic betwt.en the towns on the western
side of Scotland, and the eastern and middle portions of England,
added to the great local and general t raffle on the several parts of
the line, will form a large and constai itly increasing item of return,
always aided by the consideration that the line laid down for this
railway will shorten the distance from the western and many other
parts of Scotland, to all the eastern portions of England, by not less
than thirty miles.
From these united sources will flow an amountof income that will
abundantly compensate the shareholders for the outlay upon the line.
The subscribers will be held liable only to the amount of their
subscriptions, and power will be taken in the, Act of Parliament to
allow interest at the rate of 4 per cent. per annum on all calls from
the passing of the Act.
