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.

Ashkum hosts A407 as the train rolls into the siding to let Q194 pass by. The slog freight is pretty late today, and will be even later as they receive new instructions that they do in fact have work to do at Otto shortly, and they can’t occupy the main to do it. I called this the end of my chase for the day, but naturally, I’ll be back again before long...
Sometimes, life presents itself as a series of locks. When you find yourself in such a position, always trust your better judgement... and jump the fence~

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!

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.
