The Falkirk Wheel David Jones and Mike Dailly - Rockstar Games / Grand Theft Auto (1997)
Please read more about the Falkirk Wheel in my dedicated article. The boat lift is an engineering marvel and testament to Scottish design and engineering. The boat lift will raise or lower boats to the upper or lower sections of the Forth and Clyde Canal with the Union Canal. The Falkirk Wheel is the world's only rotational boat lift designed to connect two canals at different levels.
