The answer is: railroads

The canal boom ended when it became apparent in the 1830s and 1840s that most of the waterways were unprofitable.

A dramatic advance in transportation in the 1800s was the arrival of railroads. Thus, compared to canals, railroads cost less to build and could more easily scale hills. Besides, trains moved faster than ships and carried more weight.
