Big Chute Marine Railway

We cross a street at the zebra crossings.  Boats need to do the same to overcome obstacles such as rocky riverbeds. In Coldwater, Severn Region, Ontario, there is a special lock belonging to the Trent-Severn Waterway System, where we can witness boats climbing a rocky hill and crossing a road. 

This is the Trent-Severn Waterway Lock 44, a.k.a. Big Chute Marine Railway. 

Unlike conventional locks, which include upper and lower sluices and a lock chamber, the Big Chute lock uses a railway to carry boats.
