The Falkirk Wheel is the first and only rotating boat lift - capable of moving six hundred of tonnes of boats and water over a twenty-five metre height difference in just minutes. The ground breaking engineering that has gone into building this unique machine is unprecedented and means that the Scottish capital of Edinburgh, the destination for the mighty Union canal and the nation's second city of Glasgow are now navigable by boat.
