The Falkirk Wheel is an example of imaginative and artistic engineering. The wheel connects the Union Canal from Edinburgh with the Forth Clyde Canal allowing barges and boats inland access from Glasgow to Edinburgh. The electricity used to make each lift is the equivalent of 8 electric kettles at an electricity cost of £10 per day (less then $20 dollars)
