Wonderful video! Great to see how the tow is split up in the smaller lock and dams. I'm usually in chat at Lock 19 Keokuk. Thank you! Take care 🌸

How cool to see that! What timing that Quincey and her barge were also there that day on her way south...

Yeah it was quite a pleasant surprise to see that. Ill also do a video of the crane and Quincy soon. It's hard to realize that actual scale of things, that crane is very impressive in person.

Are you going to upload the two that went right before this one? I was there that day. I wanted to show my family the ones i watched.

Hi, Good to hear from you. There will be a video of the crane coming through which I think was before you arrived. There will also be one with the Michael Poindexter and 4 barges, I don't have any video of the City of Joliet, with the chemical barges, which was just before this tow though.

The river is higher between 18 and 19 than 17 and 18?

I don't think so. I'm not sure what they use for benchmarks for the river levels.

What is the power source that moves the first part out of the lock

They use a winch to pull the first 9 barges out. Look for the winch under the small square roof, it sits at an angle near the upper lock doors. Also notice the angled yellow caution lines where the cable crosses the walkway.

How long can the boats be in the lock
@bw6378
@bw6378 9 ай бұрын
As long as necessary to get everything through. For a split tow about 2 hours is pretty common.
