VIRGINIA BEACH IMPROVEMENTS
When the n. ". II. IL =. is BroRdened a
Belt Line May BE Built.

1t is not impossible, perhaps not i'm
probable. that a belt line may yet be
established around Norfolk as the out
come of contemplated improvements on
the Norfolk. Virginia Beach and South
ern railroad. the guage of which will
doubtless be -broadened to standard by
next season. The present surveys for
the Pennsylvania connection would
furnish such q line as would enable the
Seaboard Air Line, Atlantic and Dam
Vile. Norfolk and Carolina and South
ern roads to run trains through to the
Beach.
The plan of extending the tracks of
the Virginia Beach road down the coast
to the famous ducking and fishing fields,
Is not new one, and may yet be car
ried INTO effect. as we'll as the idea of a
breakwater and bay station at Lynn
haven for anchorage and close tranship-
ment of freight to the peninsula
The current Issue of the Manufac-
turers' Record has the following:
The Norfolk. Virginia Beach and
succeeds the Norfolk, Alebmarle and
Atlantic. has filed Il mortgage with the
Guaranty Trust Company of New York
to secure payment of $500. 600 In per
cent. bonds. 1t Is understood these
bonds are to be used in carrying out
extensive improvements on this road
and Virginia Beach, its summer resort
AT the terminus.
The road extends from Norfolk to
Virginia Beach, where the company
owns the Princess Anne Hotel and a
large tract of land. 1t Is understood
that additional buildings may be erect
ed. portions of the railroad rebuilt and
the line further extended into the east
ern part OF the State. A number Of
officials of the New York Central and
Hudson River railroad are Interested,
among them i. V. w. Rossiter, treas
urer of the New York Central whose
office is in New York City.
