Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The Lockport Cave on the Erie Canal was constructed in 1838. A water tunnel was blasted out of solid rock in the 1850s. It ran parallel to the Erie Canal, but it remained at the same height as the water before the locks at Lockport. Further downstream the water was allowed to come down along the banks to power waterwheels.
Nederlands: Lockport Caves is een waterkanaal, uitgehouwen in de rotsen, dat parallel loopt met het Eriekanaal. Het bleef echter op dezelfde hoogte, tot na het sluizencomplex in Lockport. Daarna kon het via kanaaltjes de heuvels aflopen, langs watermolens, die machines aandreven.
