Chasing the Ingram Barge in Nashville TN
AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :
AirVuz contributor DereksAerial created this drone video of a barge plying the Cumberland River in Nashville, Tennessee. Barges are a unique type of cargo ship: they do not have onboard power. The flat-bottomed ships are used to transport cargo on rivers or in other shallow waters that prohibit the deeper drafts associated with on-board propulsion. During the great age of canal-building in the 19th century, before the widespread adoption of rail transport, barges were the critical form of transportation.

Filming the Ingram Barge in downtown Nashville TN. I enjoy how the sun beams down from Broadway onto the barge. Also notice when the captain stands up to blow the fog horn!
