Darbey's Lock No 67
Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Trail, Town Creek, Allegany County, MD 25435, United States of America
Darbey's Lock No 67 is one of some locks on the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal; it was rebuilt after it collapsed in 1905.
The Act of Parliament for the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal was passed on January 1 1888 and 17 thousand shares were sold the same day. Expectations for coal traffic to Newbury never materialised and the canal never made a profit for the shareholders. In 1990 the canal became famous when John Edwards swam through Wolverhampton Embankment in 17 minutes live on television.
