The Falkirk Wheel

This is a great bit of modern waterway engineering, designed to transport canal boats from a higher to a lower level in a single step.


The Falkirk Wheel is well worth a visit if you are in central Scotland.

Small note: yes I know that one of my labels on this blog post is "England's Waterways" when this is in Scotland, but I'm not going to make a new label just for one post!

Americans like me don't know the difference between Scotland and England.

Wow, that device looks like something from the future. Thank Gawd for engineers-n-such.


Happy Secular holidays, mate,
