Holland River Division
[edit]- ... that the abandoned Newmarket Canal was so short of water that local newspapers joked they could dispense with bridges and just walk across in rubber boots?

5x expanded by Maury Markowitz (talk). Self-nominated at 15:24, 28 October 2015 (UTC).
- Expansion is from 809 characters to 14425 characters (nominated late, but whatever), which is definitely enough to qualify. The article is neutral and adequately sourced. Copyvios confidence 10.7%. Both hooks are interesting (suggest using them in last slot), neutral, short enough, and cited to the same offline source that I cannot check. QPQ done. Good to go. sst✈discuss 15:56, 17 November 2015 (UTC)
