I've just been having a look at the pictures which have been coming in from the news helicopter, and it is very close to the canal and Colwich Lock. In fact, the lock is clearly visible in lots of the shots. Haven't heard anything about the canal being closed, though. On this Google maps shot, the crash site is just between the two railway lines: http://tinyurl.com/7lvyvl Adam
