HE Surveys and Estiniateii for the formation of this Line of
Railway, by way of Croytion and Oxted, under the Superin-
tendence 'of Mr. Palmer, have been . completed.. The promi- .
nent feature in this undertaking is, that. it coniLines for a diar
tance of 20 miles from Loudon, (viz, to,Qxted,l the advantitg.,
of a joint coniniimication between the counties of Kent and
Sussex, and
.the. Netrolidlis, thereby effecting, an iluportant
saving of expense in the outlay for each county, .whilst, by
securing the tradic o(both, it.promises a groster teturn for the
catotal invested than any other line projected to Brighton. -
The result of the survey establishes the following important J
facts as relating to_ the liiightun line :—that it is. the shortest ,
practicable line to Brighton, that it, embraces a. f..r greater r
amount ot population, and interferes.less with ornamentalprof.
perties than any other; and, with. the. exception, of one very
short inclination, each way presents, in no„iiistance, a gra-
dient exceeding in feet in a mile, while many tic the gradients
~are considerably less, and partions of the line are level.
