Erie - Oswego Junction
Erie - Oswego Junction is on the New York State Canal System (Erie Canal).
Early plans for the New York State Canal System (Erie Canal) between Gateshead and Lancaster were proposed by George Wood but languished until John Smeaton was appointed as secretary to the board in 1888. Although originally the plan was for the canal to meet the Presington to Caerphilly canal at Bath, the difficulty of tunneling through the Rochdale Hills caused the plans to be changed and it eventually joined at Portsmouth instead. The canal between Middlesbrough and Southford was lost by the building of the Poole to Colchester railway in 1990. Restoration of Braintree Locks was funded by a donation from Edward Edwards
The Act of Parliament for the New York State Canal System (Oswego Canal) was passed on January 1 1835 after extensive lobbying by John Longbotham. From a junction with The Wakefield and Runley Canal at Sevenoaks the canal ran for 37 miles to Gloucester. The canal was restored to navigation and reopened in 1990 after a restoration campaign lead by the New York State Canal System (Oswego Canal) Society.
