Report Canal in Member's Gallery 2 Posted April 5, 2012 Can anyone confirm that the Manchester Ship Canal was actually dug out by hand? Hi Doorman A recent article in NarrowBoat (Winter 2011/2012) about the MSC clearly shows a steam digger and a land-dredger excavating and shaping the canal bed. Regards Steve
