Hurrah! That shows the BCN and Manchester Ship Canal "flyovers"
(although the latter is upside down).

But it's missing the Beeston & Nottingham Canal (through the city centre
rather than along the river).

Needs a little work in the Dudley No1 area too.

It also shows a navigable river from the Trent to Bawtry - maybe in Roman
times!

Four narrowboats got to Bawtry Bridge in 2002. It seems likely that more
have been there since.

I mis-remembered that - I do recall a conversation about how expensive the
passage through the sluice is.

It's also missing the restored stretch of the Cromford Canal, though
admittedly it is isolated from the rest of the canal network.

StuartSampson, whn he was chairman, produced a similar simplified
waterways map, a copy of which, in colour, I am looking at on my desk
wall at this moment.

It was on the NABO Reports Forum, but that has disappeared.

When I get established shoresides next week I might scan it in for
comparison.
