Description

Witness this feat of engineering at Lock 44 of the Trent-Severn Waterway. It works on an inclined plane to carry boats in individual cradles over a change of height of about 60 feet (18 m). This is one of only two marine railways in the world (the other is in Russia). There are large grounds for picnicking.
