VERMONT CENTRAL RAILROAD
GUILE ROUTE.

q
| The Gulf route for said road as surveyed by
Mr. Geo. Leonard, Jr presents the following facts
as published in his report:
First, the steepest grade is 43 feet per mile for
2 . miles; the next Is ~ ~ feet per mile for 4
miles the third is 40 feet per mile for miles, the
rest of which includes the whole distance of what
| is called the Gulf, and there is no curve in the
whole distance that will require radius Of less
than 400 feet The distance from the Junction of
the second branch of White River, in Royallon,
to Montpelier is 1879 miles to Miss Langdon's
in Berlin, is 3l.0l miles to the Mouth of Dog
River, 1914. The summit OF the Gulf route is
found to be from IO0 to 200 feet lower than the
summit of the Mortified or RoXbury route; and
the report also says that, where there is any rocks
to retard the operation Of grading they are of a
loose, shelly and friabc nature, consequently,
lily removed; sand and gravel are to be met
with in any quantities sufficient TO grade the road
IN the best manner; and in summing up, Mr.. Leon
ard says, g have rarely examined or seen II route
that presented more facilities for the construction
Of Railroad at a moderate expense"
And we will here say, it is with confidence we
can rely upon any statement Of Mr.. Leonard as
man, or as an Engineer Another advantage to be
gained is, the road will pass through a more pupu-
ous wealthy and fertile part of the country. 1t
will be seen by referring to the last that the
inhabitants and Grand List are nearly double on
the Gull route, and the amount Of business will be
much more in proportion. Now, by comparing the
reports Of the two routes every stakeholder Whose
private interest does not outweigh h $ interest IN
the road) will readily that it is for their adyan-
tage that the road should pass through the Gulf
The difference in favor of the Gulf in grading, is
apparent to any one who will travel over the two
routes, and we have never learnt single fact ei-
Their from observation or survey, that would give
'he Norlhheld route the preference, but upon the
olher hand all is in favor Of the Gulf; and, first
III no instance is the grade as steep by feet per
nne' ana mat only for 10 miles secondly, a sa
wing OF distance 5 G5 miles if it is extended to the
noun OF Dog River, and 0.55 miles if it THE North
held) goes into Montpelier. which will he necossn
ry in order to comply with the terms of subscrp.
ton. F
Now, it being 1902 miles from Lake Champlan
to the mouth of White River then taking the least
possible distance between the two routes whichis
sos miles, 1t would show advantage to the Gulf
route Of about IL per cent. on the whole caplal
