Let's be truthful. The jobs did not dry up. The industries were bought by outsides and moved to China

I grew up 100 yards from the canal in Holley . I learned to fish there . My father use to raise and lower the lift bridge . I owned a few apt houses the backed up to the canal loop . One was a marina and let rooms . Very historic . I was in Buffalo at canal side where they were making an authentic canal boat .

Great pictures and good narration but very disappointed by the content. I wanted to know a lot more about the engineering challenges and how they were overcome. I also want to know about the role of the canal in commerce over its decades - what kind of economic growth did it foster and for how long? Where did if fail as a stimulus to commerce and linking the East to the Midwest via the Great Lakes? And what role did the canal to Lake Champlain play in commerce. Overall nice presentation but too many platitudes and too few hard facts regarding engineering and commerce.

Lived in Rochester in mid 60's & experienced the beauty & industry connected the Erie Canal. Thanks for the memories.

😮thank you soooo much for that I really appreciate that you spent your efforts on this Your technical skills are impressive:-)

Good video. On a minor note. Oswego is pronounced Aaz wee gow. Not aaz way gow

Just for accuracy Port Byron is not a town. It is a village in the town of Mentz.

Thats “ Med eye na “

Best Canal video ever. You did miss an old Aqueduct just East of Syracuse in Camillus, and next to Onondaga lake. I used to live a block away from it in Canastota, and went snowmobiling on the towpath a lot. I live in San Diego now, I took my GF back to see it last year, she had no idea how cool it is to see a working lock !

Cayouuuga, Osweeeeego. Great and informative video!

I was born and raised in Sheffield, but after 47 years in the military and civil service, I wound up in San Diego. I was in Sheffield just two weeks ago visiting family and enjoying the serenity of the property I grew up on. I visited Hector falls many times in my younger days. I was also lucky to fish the Farnsworth Creek while home. The area is still as beautiful as ever.

I live right in front of love eight on the Oswego canal. Lake Ontario is a half mile from my building.

It is os we go

you forgot the black river canal

You missed lock 17. I believe it’s the tallest single lift in the whole system

Thank you so much for a wonderful tour of the canal.

The Pussycat has sung a song to honor this beautiful mountain, river and landscape "Alleghenny" lyrics Pussycat Lyrics Follow Pussycat on Bandsintown "Alleghenny" There are times I remember a valley With it's trees soaked by waterfall rain From the mountains of high Alleghenny Files an eagle way down into the grain I see places where children were playin' Till the sunset turned all silver lined Ev'rytime I'm alone My Aleghenny home Callin' me to the place I left behind Alleghenny, Alleghenny, Alleghenny Send your echo way up to the sky Alleghenny, Alleghenny, Alleghenny Call me back till the day I'd die Where the shadows fall down from the hillside I've been dreamin' my daydreams away May seasons have flown My Aleghenny home Callin' me to the place I left behind Alleghenny, Alleghenny, Alleghenny Send your echo way up to the sky Alleghenny, Alleghenny, Alleghenny Call me back till the day I'd die

Que interesante documental, he leido mucho sobre el canal y al principio eran mulas a la orilla del canal que remolcaban las embarcaciones, un saludo desde Venezuela

Did you say 11 thousand years???

I was born in Warren, husband in Bradford. We've spent our lives out in these woods. We have a view of the forest from the back window. There's something to do every season, and we wouldn't live anywhere else. It rarely hits 90 degrees, but it is considered the best area in the country for fall leaf viewing. Best part is no one comes here. 😊 Great video.

интресное видео, спасибо (узбекистан)

This is absolutely incredible

A great video thank you very much! We will be taking this trip to experience it in real time. Thank you.

Oswego pronounced OS - WE -GO not OS WaY-Go

Good overview of CVNP! One more item to note - cyclists can take their bikes on the train, and then ride back to their starting point. If you're visiting the area, both Cleveland and Summit County (Akron) have very good metro park systems.

❤❤❤

Excellent, wonderful production! Thanks!

White Hall is the Birth place of the United States Navy

Germans fallen were NOT victims of the war. They were its authors. They were the occupiers and they were the muscles of the Third Reich with millions of innocent lives swallowed by it. Men, women, children. Most of them murdered not in combat but in Holocaust and in famines orchestrated by Nazis. Eternal shame on the German soldiers of that war!

No cars allowed

I travled the walkways and sat marveling at the drydock and locks of the old 8 foot wide canal near Albany . Some has become basements and walls near a parking lot. But, theres lots of great fossil hunts to be had all the big rack is made of fern and shells everywhare. There's something for everyone to enjoy. What a great job you've done with this video. It should be a school video . It's great thank you 👍

Excellent video. We are heading North this Fall on vacation and I will endeavor to stop at some of these sites, now that you have introduced me to them . Many thanks.

This is known more today as the Barge Canal. It follows most of the Erie Canal original route.

You might want to mention that this is NOT the same as the more famous Ohio and Erie Canal which went from Lake Erie to the Ohio River.

Hey from the Erie Canal terminus at the Chesapeake Bay..👋

I love turning bowls! Can’t wait to see the finished bowl! This is probably my favorite way to dry the rough turned bowls, but I’ve recently been playing with soaking them in denatured alcohol. I’ll probably go back to this, as I am getting cracks in my black cherry. Thanks Carl and Robin!

Great presentation! I grew up beside the Erie Canal in the '50's in Henpeck, to the west of Rochester. First memories were watching the barges and hearing the tug's horns. Just wanted to mention something that would have been a bit of interest. You could have shown the canal's original path through Rochester if you were just one bridge over. There is a double-decker arch bridge 50 yards to the north of the single arch bridge you showed. The lower of those arch bridges once held the Erie Canal as it traversed the Genesee River. After the canal was moved south, it held the subway, as the road for cars was built over it.

Was there at the 80th😊

My great Uncle was actually at D Day itself and almost did exist afterwards. What had happen was he was on one of the boats approaching the beaches. When they came under fire from the German defenses. One of the deterrents against the allies hit his boat and blew it up. I forgot what hit them, or if anyone managed to survive, but regardless he was never found. Eventually they just chalked in up to another loss, what can you do. Though I think since his body was never recovered he was MIA, again I don’t remember all the details. However two weeks later he was found alive in a British hospital. Apparently what happened was when the boat was struck by the German defenders, he was thrown out of the boat into the water. He got picked up and sent to a hospital for recovery. He actually managed to still see some action fight in a ally tank. The father of a friend of my dad also found in WW2. But he and some others got captured by the Nazis. He was taken to a slave camp where every day, he would walk to a nearby farm and do manual labor all day and then walk back to the camp. Never with a guarded escort because there was literally no where to go and they’d kill him if he did. And that all he experienced in the camps, it only ended when the Allies turned up and freed the camp.

1:17 A map of the modern barge canal. The erie canal went south of Oneida lake and through Syracuse.

I consider the D-day museum in Bayeux to be the best. You will too if you are a uniform and equipment collector as I am. I visited there during the 50th anniversary. Every regiment of every nationality was represented in full mannequin,

Thank you for this informative video of historic D-Day sites in Normandy.👍👍👍

I was on a civilian airplane seated in the back - the smoking section. There were several men seated around me. Everyone was quiet until someone asked what I did. When I replied USAF Nurse - well something happened as one after another they began to describe what they did in theatre. I believe they needed to talk to they felt safe talking to.

Dumnezeu să-i odihnească în pace pe toți militarii aliații care au căzut pentru libertate! I-ar noi nu trebuie să îi uităm! Cu stimă și respect

I wish I had seen this video before I went there last year. I only spent a day or 2 in Normandy, but instead concentrated on the "Liberation Trail" that largely followed Patton's march through France and Germany. Basically, I was following my father's footsteps through Europe while in 3rd Army. Next trip I'm going to concentrate on Normandy.

Excellent 👍

at the beginning, the Russians were the allies of the Nazis... and it was only when Hitler turned against them that they took up arms against him... the Russians were always submissive... they like that... the only time they could have changed their condition would have been to join Napoleon against their oppressors... they preferred oppression, and they prefer, even today, murderous dictatorships.. .Bolshevik, Soviet, Stalinist, Putinian...

Thank you one of the most balanced D Day video/documentaries I have watched.
