has drawn plans for improvements
costing approximately $4,000. which

Will Give Birmingham One More Direct Outlet to Sea. New Line About 75
 Miles Long

The Atlanta Birmingham and Atlantic railroad is to build an extension to Jack sonville, Fla, from Waycross, Ga. 75 miles, and terminal arrangements in both Waycross and Jacksonville have already been made.
 Further information on the project IS contained in the following from the cur rent issue of the Manufacturers Record.
 Concerning the recent report that the Atlanta, Birmingham and Atlantic Rail- way company had decided to build it's contemplated extension to Jacksonville, Fla, starting from Waycross, Ga, 75 miles, it is announced that large ternt- nal site in the center of Waycross has been purcha sed, and arrangements have also been made for an admirably located terminal property at Jacksonville.
 Tt will require from two to two and a half years to complete the extension, and it will cost something more than S2,000,- 900. The existing situation as to obtain ing railroad materials prevents earlier completion. Orders have been placed for S0-pound rails which will be delivered some time next year.
 Entrance to Jacksonville will afford the road the great advantage of a first class tidewater terminal in addition to it's Brunswick terminal, and it will, more over, have a direct line from Birming- ham to Jacksonville, well as one of the best routes from Atlanta to that city,
