York, Barges On The Foss Navigation 1885

More about this scene
For centuries the Ouse had been used to transport people and goods in and out of the city. In the mid-1830s there was even a steamer service linking York with London. The journey took over thirty hours, and was an acceptable alternative to being shaken and bounced along the Great North Road in a mail-coach.
