---------------------------------------
THE proposed railway will connect the assize town of
Omagh with the city of Armagh, now the centre
of all the railways in the north of Ireland. Joining the Lon-
donderry and Enniskillen Railway at Omagh, and passing by
or near Ballygawley, Fintona, Clogher, Augher, Aughnacloy,
Caledon, and Killylea, the line will terminate at Armagh, there
forming a junction with the Newry and Enniskillen, the Ulster
Railway to Belfast, the proposed inland line to Dublin, and also
the Armagh, Coleraine, and Portrush Railways.
The inhabitants of Tyrone and the adjacent counties will be
thus afforded the most direct route to Armagh, Newry, and Bel-
fast; while the distance between Omagh and Dublin will be
twenty miles shorter than by any other Railway hitherto pro-
jected.
The entire length of the line will be about 35 statute miles.
The traffic tables show a return of at least 8 per cent. on the
proposed capital.
The detailed prospectus and map may be had at the Com-
pany¹s offices as above, and applications for share may be made
in the usual form, to the solicitors and secretaries, at their re-
spective offices ; and to the following brokers :--Messrs. Bruce
and Symes, Dublin; A. Montgomery, Esq., Liverpool; Messrs.
Munro and Co., 41, George-street, Edinburgh ; Messrs.
Cardwell and Sons, Manchester ; R. P. Clark, Esq., Bristol ;
James Jamieson, Esq., Leeds ; R. Mortimer, Esq., Throgmorton-
street, London, and Richard Stack, Esq., Omagh.
