Der Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, abgekürzt als C&O Canal und gelegentlich auch Grand Old Ditch genannt, war ein Kanal zur Binnenschifffahrt und von 1836 bis 1924 in Betrieb. Er verlief zwischen Cumberland in Maryland und Washington, D.C. parallel zum Potomac River. Die Verlängerung über die appalachische Wasserscheide zum Ohio River wurde nie realisiert. Die Gesamtlänge des Kanals beträgt rund 300 km. Der Höhenunterschied von 185 m wurde mit Hilfe von 74 Kanalschleusen überwunden. Damit der Kanal relativ kleine Wasserläufe überwinden konnte, wurden mehr als 150 Düker gebaut. Zur Kreuzung von größeren Gewässern wurden elf Aquädukte gebaut, von denen zehn noch existieren. Der Kanal verläuft auch durch den 950 m langen Paw Paw Tunnel. Er diente hauptsächlich dazu, Kohle aus den Allegheny Mountains zur Chesapeake Bay zu befördern. Er wird nun als National Historical Park unterhalten, dem Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historical Park. Ein Wanderweg verläuft entlang des alten Leinpfades. (de) The Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, abbreviated as the C&O Canal and occasionally called the "Grand Old Ditch," operated from 1831 until 1924 along the Potomac River between Washington, D.C. and Cumberland, Maryland. It replaced the Potomac Canal, which shut down completely in 1828, and could operate during months in which the water level was too low for the former canal. The canal's principal cargo was coal from the Allegheny Mountains. Construction on the 184.5-mile (296.9 km) canal began in 1828 and ended in 1850 with the completion of a 50-mile (80 km) stretch to Cumberland, although the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad had already reached Cumberland in 1842. Rising and falling over an elevation change of 605 feet (184 meters), it required the construction of 74 canal locks, 11 aqueducts to cross major streams, more than 240 culverts to cross smaller streams, and the 3,118 ft (950 m) Paw Paw Tunnel. A planned section to the Ohio River at Pittsburgh was never built. The canalway is now maintained as the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal National Historical Park, with a trail that follows the old towpath. (en) Le Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, abrégé C&O Canal, appelé quelquefois le "Grand Old Ditch" (littéralement le Grand et vieux fossé), est un canal parallèle à la rivière Potomac de Cumberland (Maryland) à Washington, DC. Il fut en activité de 1836 jusqu'en 1924. Sa longueur totale est de 300 km (184,5 miles). Sa déclivité du canal est d'environ 185 m (605 ft), franchie par 74 écluses. La traversée de cours d'eau importants a requis la construction de 11 aqueducs (10 sont encore présents). Le canal passe aussi à travers le de 950 m (3 120 ft). Le charbon venant des montagnes du comté Allegany était la principale cargaison. Le canal est dorénavant un parc, le (en). Un parcours de promenade suit le chemin de halage. (fr) El canal Chesapeake-Ohio fue un canal del río Potomac, activo entre 1831 y 1924, que unía las ciudades de Washington D. C. y Cumberland, Maryland, en Estados Unidos. Se usó principalmente para el transporte de carbón procedente de las cercanas montañas Allegheny. El canal tenía una longitud de 297 km y permitía el paso de barcas de hasta unos 27 metros eslora y casi 4,5 metros de manga. Para su uso, requirió la construcción de 74 esclusas, once puentes acuíferos para cruzar las mayores corrientes, más de 240 obras de drenaje para cruzar las corrientes menores y el , de 950 metros. Una sección planeada entre el río Ohio y Pittsburgh nunca fue construida. Actualmente el canal es mantenido por el Parque Histórico Nacional del Canal Chesapeake-Ohio con un sendero a lo largo del canal, para caminantes y ciclistas. (es) Het Chesapeake and Ohio Canal is een kanaal dat van Cumberland, Maryland naar Washington, D.C. loopt, parallel aan de rivier de Potomac. De lengte van het C&O Canal, zoals de afgekorte naam luidt, is ongeveer 300 km en via 74 sluizen wordt een hoogteverschil van 185m overbrugd. In 1828 werd er begonnen met de bouw van het kanaal dat de Ohio met de Chesapeake Bay moest verbinden. In 1836 werd het geopend. Tussen 1836 en 1924 werd het kanaal voornamelijk gebruikt voor het vervoer van kolen vanuit de Allegheny Mountains. Na 88 jaar actieve dienst veroorzaakte de massale overstroming van 1924 zoveel schade aan het kanaal dat transport niet meer mogelijk was. In 1938 kocht de Amerikaanse overheid het kanaal met het doel een deel ervan weer open te stellen en de rest als recreatiegebied aan te merken. In 1971 werd het kanaal als Nationaal Historisch Monument beschermd.
