GEORGE STEPHENSON

The rage for railroads is so great that many will be laid in parts where they will not pay.

Where combination is possible, competition is impossible.

I am much obliged by the favourable sentiments you express towards me, and shall be happy if I can be of service in carrying into execution your plans.

To tell you the truth although it would put £500 in my pockets to specify my own patent rails, I cannot do so after the experience I have had.

The principles upon which a safety lamp might be constructed I stated to several persons long before Sir Humphrey Davy came into this part of the country.

I am glad to learn that the Parliament Bill has been passed for the Darlington Railway.
