Summary

Description
English: This is a video panorama of the Niagara Gorge rapids from the Niagara Gorge Railroad. It was originally produced by Edison Manufacturing in 1900, and is now part of the Library of Congress. The original description of the film in the Edison catalogue was: "One of the most interesting places in the vicinity of Niagara Falls is the Whirlpool Rapids, where the immense volume of water which passes from the Falls, speeds along through its rocky and tortuous passage towards the ocean. The camera in securing this picture was placed at the front end of a train ascending the grade at a very rapid rate of speed. The combined motion of the train in one direction and the water in the opposite direction, the latter impeded and interrupted in its course by the rocky path through which it flows, sending beautiful masses of spray and foam many feet in the air, makes an impression on the audience long to be remembered. 110 feet"
