I thank all of you, who have commented and subscribed to this video! Initially, this clip was meant to be shared with only a few dozen of my FB friends. I never expected it to have over 2K subscribers or over 2 million views, I never strive for such numbers. Those numbers tell me, that one doesn't have to have any spectacular videos to arouse people's interests. That people appreciate, down to earth "honest" stuff. That was my wife Kathy who walked down along with the boat and spoke to me in German and was continuously looking back and watching me, that I didn't fall in to the water :-) Not any kind of surprise, as I'm used to surveillance even at home :-) Since recently, I also fly a drone and I've posted some aerial videos. We just returned from a 3-weeks road trip in Turkey and I'll be posting some aerial clips. Could be of interest to some, to see familiar things from a different perspective. Coming Saturday the 1st of June, we'll be in Belgium for an extended weekend. I then plan to visit some similar engineering feats and do a simple video like this. Once again, I would like to thank all of you, who watched this video and liked and subscribed!

Actually I don't think it was that difficult a sale. Portages have been used for ages long before railroads. If something like that wasn't used, then it would have been necessary to build quite a few very deep locks which would have also drained a lot of water from the high side dumping into the low side every time a boat was moved. The locks would have had to be maintained and they always leak somewhat. Moving water from the leaking or seepage erodes structures. This is a much better and sane solution.

Rhys Hughes it’s called a “portage”, and it appears to be achieved by way of a funicular. In this instance the carriage loaded with the boat is obviously heavier than the empty carriage, so gravity does the work. If both carriages had boats gravity would still contribute. The only force that one would need to add would be any positive difference in weight of the ascending carriage. In other words, if the carriage running uphill weighs more than the one running down hill. This is actually a sophisticated way of doing this if one doesn’t want to expend the resources to build a lock.

This thing was fascinating and an engineering marvel, just combine a canal and a railroad! But the Falkirk wheel has it beat.😊

I think this kind of alternating carrier is called a jigback system where the rising carrier is balanced by the descending one, like elevators and counterweights or gondollas ascending mountains. Thus the load is partly ballanced by the one going down on the opposite run. But the fact this was built by Prussia in the 19th century is impressive!

The Morris Canal in NJ had dozens of these inclined planes as boats travelled across the state from the Delaware River in Phillipsburg to the Newark Bay. The planes were powered by water power via Scotch turbines

Yes, the constructor of these canal visited the Morris canal and got some inspiration there, but found this diffrent solution. The whole canal uses 5 of this cableways.

É sou o NÔMADE e escrevo para que você possa ficar com a butuca ligada, quando alguém pensa tudo e satisfatorio no resultado de trabalho final, nosso pais TUPINIQUIM. !! Muitos só pensaram em roubar todo projeto gastam muito é uma vergonha todo final de obra muitas das quais são abandonadas, e a roubalheira sumiu com a verba, muitos dos trabalhadores recorrem a justiça, é uma sacanagem ao trabalhador muitas vezes enganados perdem o que teriam a receber,, os patrões e empregados, sempre em desacordo.

We saw something very similar at Big Chute, Ontario, Canada when we were there a number of years ago.
