I wrote this article from scratch. I haven't come across too much I can use for this Division yet; it seems to have singularly disappeared compared to the other canals - I think the entire length has been abandoned. Pretty much every other canal has *some* length of it currently in a private or public park, but I'm not finding anything for this. However, I've put a bit more into the contributing factors on the sale of the Main Line (this will be getting polished up more and passed around). --Jason S. Colflesh 22:24, 30 July 2007 (CDT)
