TWO NEW RAILROAD LINES.
To Penetrate Undeveloped Ore Districts
Of West Virginia

The opening OF the new branch to Fair
mont has led to plans for penetrating further
into the interior. Two additional lines are
now projected. One line will connect with
TIE Baltimore and OHIO at or near Point
Marion. running up the valley OF Cheat river
10 miles to KngwOod, where 1t will meet the
Tunnelton, kingwood and Fairchance Narrow
Gauge Railroad. which runs south TO the
main line OF the Baltimore and ohio.
The other line will tap the Baltimore and
Ohio somewhere between Point Marion and
Fairmont, probably at MorgantowD. II will
be over 40 miles long. probably terminating
at Phillip or Grafton
The country to be opened by these lines is
rich In iron ore, timber. limestone. glass
house sand. and the best Of coal and fire.
clay.
The first named will give 10 Kingwood
railroad connections 10 the north, and give
still easier access from Pittsburg TO the main
line OF the Baltimore and Ohio.
