You could just string the barges end to end and have them constantly puttering along - people could just step on and off without slowing the barges.

30 years ago
when I was doing my firefighter training, we recruits all rode a paternoster at a huge grain store in Avonmouth docks.
It was tremendous fun hanging on to the handles of a giant vertical conveyor-belt and going up 4-5 floors then swapping sides and coming down again.
In hindsight, it was incredibly dangerous. H&S would have a fit nowadays.

I had one at university
It was a rite-of-passage to go over the top and under the bottom of it - the walls there were covered in grafiti from the past 40 years :)

was it Sheffield uni by any chance?
I rode the one in the tower block there up to the Architecture studios on the 15th floor. Great fun!
