The 234 miles long waterway, built artifically within 12 years, opened in 1985, connects the Tennessee River with the Tombigbee River, allowing a tremendous shortcut to the Gulf of Mexico, actually to the port of Mobile, AL. The Tennesee-Tombigbee Waterway naturally doesn't have a steamboat history by its own. But at Carrollton, AL, it holds a treasure that makes it worth mentioning here anyway: the US snagboat MONTGOMERY.
