E has non-restrictive clause (underlined above). If a sentence has a non-restrictive clause, then it should be grammatically correct even if that clause is removed from the sentence. If you remove it from the sentence, the sentence would be -

The Erie Canal but running 363 miles across the rugged wilderness of upstate New York, connecting - which IMO is not correct.

The choice E is first to be eliminated as this is very much fragmented and does not have verb at all in the sentence.
