EPISODE 432 THE BIG CHUTE…white water rafting at its best…if you have the guts.

Note:  I will get back to Ireland once I am sure my computer is working well.
Meanwhile take a look at what happens to a pond when  the bottom falls out…
and slip your cabin cruiser on to this dinosaur of engineering.


EPISODE 432    THE BIG CHUTE…white water rafting at its best…if you have the guts.

Just in case you think Canadians are not capable of constructing mega machines
take a look at this ‘boat carriage’ hidden away near Highway 400 on the Canadian shield.


So you think you are a white water rafter…





George and Penny Barr took Marjorie on this short trip from placid Georgian Bay … Mega-trip for the mind.

This is not a modest piece of engineering.   A short railway line that can carry a whole fleet of boats from a high point to
a low point.   And it does so with passengers all aboard.
Watch what happens a placid piece of pond water when it finds a crack in the earth.
