At the beginning there were two canals:tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb0 ~9 |7 S8 H8 a' |, l
Canal Forth and Clyde was built in 1777, between harbors Grangemouth and Falkirk connecting Glasgow with west cost of Scotland.1 K4 g. L; T) c' i) y( s) z' B
Canal Union between Falkirk and Edinburgh was finished in 1822. Because of geographical difficulties, which created a difference of 79 ft. in elevation, the two canals were connected by 11 locks.

The“tubs” are filled according the Archimedes’ Law. So the weight of “tubs” are balanced. To open the upper and lower lock and turn the whole system by 180◦they need an engine of 22.5 kW which only use 1.5 kWh4 a: v; Y1 y# B' s4 r' h

This is a fascinating canal in Scotland. Especially with a elevation of 79 ft between two canals. The swinging transportation is very genius design to save space.
