Canada - Ontario - Welland Canal - Disaster

Picture, 1928

Thirty - four grains boats held up in Welland Canal by Low Water. Above are seen views of some of the thirty-four grain boats which were held up in the Welland canal last week as a result of the unusually low water levels which have recently been brought about by the Chicago steal and other causes. Al though the vessels are loading more lightly than in previous years one or other of them nevertheless strikes bottom in the canal every so often, with the result that all traffic is tied up until they can be refloated. Thousands of dollars are thus being lost as a result of delays and curtailed cargoes in the case of the factories when water normally used for generating electrical power has to be diverted to raise the canal levels.

Part of the new Welland Canal is now in full operation. Here we see the funnel and masts of a vessel in Lock No. 3. She's ready to be lowered to the next level as she makes her way to Lake Ontario.

The first commercial ship to use the bypass in the Welland Canal between Port Colborne and Port Robinson was the laker Senneville, which made the trip yesterday as the St. Lawrence Seaway opened for the season. The $188 million by-pass, which took six years to build, eliminates six lift bridges along the canal and several bends in the channel. By-pass trims 30 minutes from the previous 13 to 14-hour trip through the canal. Ice conditions on lakes are light.

Where canal gate collapsed. At least ninemen were killed, twelve are in hospital badly crushed and several others were more or less seriously injured at Lock No. 6 of the new Welland canal to-day, when a 500-ton gate collapsed as it was being placed in position by derricks. At the TOP is shown Locks No. 5 and 6 with Lock No. 7 in the background. The depth of the canal at this point is 130.8 feet, almost the same depth as the Horseshoe Falls. At the Bottom is a map showing where the accident occurred. The diagram in the Centre shows how the canal will lift shipping from the low level of Lake Ontario to the higher level of lake Onatario to the higher level of Lake Erie.

Heavy slide as canal bank caves. For 500 feet along the Welland Ship canal earth slid into the manmade ditch yesterday as shown in this photograph. About 34,000 cubic yards of earth fell in the first disturbance since 1935. Shipping was not impeded by the slide. The minor avalanche was attributed by the engineering staff to natural erosion. Dredges will clear the debris shortly. Grading of the banks at tremendous cost would be the only means of eliminating them, the engineers stated. A slide occurred several years ago near the scene of yesterday's slip.
