Here's a video of almost 50 years ago when there was still commercial traffic on the Canal du Midi.
The canal lost it's importance because of neglet of maintenance, and also (the main reason) for not having lenghtened all the lock to Freycinet size.
It's all too late now, and that will never happen anymore, and now the barge-traffic there is mainly Hotel-barges.
