Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

The Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, abbreviated as the C&O Canal and occasionally called the "Grand Old Ditch," operated from 1831 until 1924 along the Potomac River between Washington, D.C. and Cumberland, Maryland. It replaced the Potomac Canal, which shut down completely in 1828, and could operate during months in which the water level was too low for the former canal. The canal's principal cargo was coal from the Allegheny Mountains.

Summary from Español / Spanish Wikipedia (eswiki)

El canal Chesapeake-Ohio fue un canal del río Potomac, activo entre 1831 y 1924, que unía las ciudades de Washington D. C. y Cumberland, Maryland, en Estados Unidos. Se usó principalmente para el transporte de carbón procedente de las cercanas montañas Allegheny.
