I would be very interested to see some dates on this page? I have been working on a page for John Edyvean who used inclined planes in 1770's are these the earliest in the the UK?

The text stated that boats are perpendicular to the inclined plane, but shows an example where its clearly in line. I have amended the text to says "sometime perpendicular"
Appears to be suffering from a lack of coverage of developmeants outside the UK. Geni 23:08, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
Caisson is a DAB page, but caisson (engineering) relates to structures which are effectively the inverse of what's used here (ie a box filled with air and submersed, upside-down, in the water). Something doesn't seem right - maybe there's another sense of caisson that's not yet defined in WP?

I'm not sure what this sentence means. "On some canals an inclined plane was used just to the transfer the loads up or down to the boats on a rail system." I was going to fix the grammar, but could not be sure exactly what the writer meant. Anyone care to clarify? (I was looking at the article as there were three planes on the Kidwelly and Llanelly Canal), but I have not found any details of how they worked, yet. Bob1960evens 19:51, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

I am moving the following uncited material here until it can be properly supported with inline citations of reliable, secondary sources, per WP:V, WP:CS, WP:IRS, WP:PSTS, WP:BLP, WP:NOR, et al. This diff shows where it was in the article. Nightscream ( talk) 15:09, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
