Happy week ahead everyone! ;)
Lock 4 on the Monongahela River... soon to be replaced by the Charleroi Lock as part of the Lower Monongahela River Project. Locks 2, 3 & 4 are the oldest and busiest locks on the Mon. The project will result in the removal of Lock 3. Lock 2 was rebuilt as a gate and Lock 4 will be replaced.

Leerstetten Lock on the Rhine-Main-Danube Canal. This lock is 90' tall and quite the invention of mankind, in my opinion. To let you know the size of it, our longship passed through the black hole at the bottom. Lucky we got here at the Golden Hour!

Lock 92 — on the canal that changed everything.
The Bridgewater Canal was the world’s first true industrial canal (1761), built to move coal cheaply into Manchester and ignite the factory boom. Two and a half centuries later, the lock still sits in the same footprint, carrying the legacy of the world’s first transport revolution.
Avanti Class 807 no. 004 crosses Stour Valley Viaduct and the BCN as it threads its way out of Wolverhampton with 9P47, the 0716 London Euston to Blackpool North. Work is underway to replace lock gates on the BCN below.
This is part of the Songo Lock, located on the Songo River between Sebago and Long Lakes. This is the sluice gates uded to lower and raise the water levels in the lake. The lock is part of an old canal finished in 1831, once used for transporting logs/lumber down to Portland for loading on ships. The canal is long gone, but this lock remains in operation to help get recreational boats between the two lakes. It is operated by the state park system. The actual lock is off to the left behind the island, and uses a hand operated wooden gate to contain the water.
