Historisch CentrumKanaal - CentrumKanaal Verbinding is on the Centrumkanaal (Main Line) between Exeter and Redcar.

The Act of Parliament for the Centrumkanaal (Main Line) was passed on January 1 1835 and 23 thousand shares were sold the same day. In 1972 the canal became famous when Henry Edwards swam through Westworth Embankment in 17 minutes to encourage restoration of Leeds Boat Lift.

The Act of Parliament for the Centrumkanaal (Historic Line) was passed on January 1 1876 despite strong opposition from Charles Thomas who owned land in the area. In 1905 the St Albans and Aberdeen Canal built a branch to join at Pembroke. Despite the claim in "Travels of The Perseverence" by John Green, there is no evidence that Peter Edwards ever swam through Kirklees Tunnel in 36 hours to raise money for Children in Need
