1200 Miles in a Week Was Speed in Pa Canal Boat Era
Harrisburg notes recall Pa canal life as public demand spurred water routes. By 1834 Pennsylvania held about 673 miles of canals with major links like Philadelphia to Columbia and Harrisburg to Pittsburgh. The canal system used inclined planes and took about a week to traverse, transporting farm produce, coal, lumber, ore, salt, and pig iron, with passenger packets on select routes.
