Gower Branch Canal: fleeting glimpse from the railway
The railway journey between Birmingham and Wolverhampton provides fleeting glimpses of many of Birmingham's waterways. Here, running alongside the New Main Line of the Birmingham Canal, one has a quick glimpse of the Gower Branch running off at a right angle: in its short dead straight length, it climbs through three locks to the Old Main Line further up the hillside.
