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 kWhtvboxnow.com- _/ `  i  T/ _8 ]8 t7 e1 j9 A

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.
