Solicitous : Smith and Anderson* It is proposed to construct a Railway from Dunedin to the Ocean Beach at the Forbury on the one side, and on the other down by Auderson s Bay and the east side of the Harbor, as fas' as Bortobello, with the view of continuing it to tae Heads. So soon as possible, it is proposed to commence near the crossing of the GlUtba Railway at the Anderson’s Bay Road, making use of the Clutha Line from Dunedin to. that point, until the Company thinks it desirablo' to construot a separate line from its own terminus in the City. The promoters are satisfied that such, a railway will not n be .directly profitable as an investment, but that it will prove an immense boonto the inhabitants of Dunedin find the settlers in the district through which it will pass. The Forbury Branch will pass the Catedonian Grounds, Gasworks, and Race Course, and terminate at or near the Forbury hoad; and it is believed that the passenger traffic on this part alone, -will pay a good interest on the capital -necessary to construct the whole line. The other Branch will leave the Anderson’s Bay Road, beyond, the Bay view Hotel, and proceed to Anderson s Bay, and thence down the East side of the Harbor to Portobello. This line will secure a considerable goods traffic in Lime, limber, Coal, Bricks, and -Farm and Garden Produce ; while the rapidly increasing popularity ef the sunny slopes of the Feninsohvlor Bu -r?^ er res^ences a nd pleasure .excursions, will draw a large passenger traffic.. Both kind* of traffic will be very thuch.increased by what wm no doubt follow the constriiction of the railway viz. - steamer from Port Chalmers to Portobello, and a deep water wharf at the Heads, when the line is finished that lengthy Ihe Provincial Government, fully recognising the public importance of the proposed undertaking, has promised to give all public lands required for the construction of the line, including sufficient land for a Dunedin Terminus in a central situation ; and the Government haa also undertaken, if necessary, to work the lino with its tolling stock on fair and reasonable terms. • The Promoters have every reasbh te believe that all private lands required for the line will be freely given by their respective owners. Mr D. Proudfoot has already offered to givs,i without compensation, a strip of land through the whole breadth of his valuable property near' the Ocean Beach. The following may be taken as a rough estimate of the approximate cost of the sections, exclusive of rolling stock: From Dunedin to Ocean Beach 2i miles ... £7,000 From near Mr Tplmie’s house to Portobello, via Anderson’s Bay ...
