I saw pictures of the Falkirk Wheel before I came to Glasgow. I always wanted to see it but I only managed to go today. 😊 How impressive!

At the rather splendid Falkirk Wheel with dad. Elegant & practical piece of modern engineering, can't help but think those venerable, innovative engineers of yesteryear, like Brunel, would appreciate it.

A remarkably energy efficient boat lift that reconnected the Firth & Clyde Canal and Union Canal, from Edinburgh right to Glasgow & Clydebank.

Non avevi ancora visto la ???

Considera che per girare quella cosa incredibile servono 1,5 kWh, più o meno quanto una lavatrice che fa il bucato a 90°C.

Ecco come funziona:

Engineering at its most magnificent. The unique and uniquely beautiful Falkirk Wheel rotary boat lift opened in 2002. It fulfils a role originally accomplished by a flight of 11 locks when the Union Canal opened in 1822. More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/fal

Duke and Baron. The wonderful sculptures by Andy Scott at the Falkirk Wheel. Based on two Clydesdale Horses that pulled barges along the Forth and Clyde canals for many years, they stand proud beside the M9 and are tower over visitors in the canal basin.
