| The container ship powers up and heads out to sea. Note you can see the locomotives on each side of the ship and you can just make out the steel cables they have attached to guide the ship so that it doesn't scrape along the sides of the canal. Today's cargo ships are designed so that they are as big as they can be, but not too large to traverse the canal (they barely fit!) and are known as "Panamax" ships. |
