Slow, slow we Go !

Last CJ took a trip around our latest city. This CJ we take another short trip around the Fort Grayon - Sampson City area. We gona take a trip on the Fort Grayon - Sampson City canal. Still there is a lot activity around this area. Some agriculture, a lot of Coal and some other activities. Here a map of the area with the route marked !

We start at Fort Grayon old harbour !

Early day´s this was a very busy port. Today it´s a small business hub.

We move on to the seaport area with some of the older industrial quarters !

With some twists, turns and locks we travel to the the mayor junction with the Mayon City exit !

Highest section of the Canal got a saw mill. Upside we see the resevoir wich feeds the canal. Modern water management tries to save as much water as posible. Norther American do have a lot of rain still every drop is treasured.

Next we cross a array of coal mines and a agricultural landing !

Canals, rails, roads, highways and even power lines, you got 'em all! A job well done.
The regional view looks great too.
