A3: the four Tring Reservoirs were originally designed to supply water to the Grand Union Canal. The route through the Tring Gap
needed a flight of six locks, culminating in the summit of the canal at Marsworth Top Lock. #Chilterns #TRLT @bradtguides

A3: I’m biased since I’m a D.C.-area guy, but I think the neck-straining Capitol rotunda is an engineering marvel. #TRLT

#trlt A3: I'm tempted to say the Woodhead Tunnel. A dead railway line tunnel bored through the hills of the Peak District.

A3: Since there are none close to me, I'll chose an engineering marvel in my home away from home - Dubai. The world's tallest building - the Burj Khalifa. #TRLT

A3: While on a recent bus ride, Laura spotted the new Sky Pool at Embassy Gardens in Vauxhall, London. Would anyone be brave enough to take the plunge here? #TRLT

A3 #TRLT The Astoria Megler Bridge in Astoria, Oregon was the last part of US Hwy 101 completed in 1966. At 4.1 miles across the mouth of the Columbia River it is still the longest continuous truss bridge in North America.

A3: Behind me is the Fish Pond in Lihue #Kauai #Hawaii. The locals tell that menehune (small people) built this fish pond off the river for better fishing. via @bradtguides #TRLT #traveltuesday

A3: Anna is from Yorkshire, and loves the Gothic architecture of York Minster, which is one of the largest cathedrals in the world. Has anyone got it on their to-visit list? https://t.co/uw4P4nwh5a #TRLT

A3: I'm not sure it qualifies as a marvel, but the Mackinac (pronounced naw at the end) Bridge spanning the Straits of Mackinac where Lake Michigan and Lake Huron meet is the 10th largest suspension bridge. #TRLT https://t.co/j6XEh8jDPU

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @BradtGuides A3: It's cheating to say London but you've got everything from a Roman amphitheatre, the Underground and, what I think are rather beautiful and impressive feats of engineering, gasometers. #TRLT

A3: Growing up in the West Midlands, Carys loved visiting nearby Ironbridge. The town’s namesake is the world’s first iron bridge, which was built in 1779 and showcases the genius of local ironmasters https://t.co/9ctL4bPZqk #TRLT

#trlt A3 ish: I don't have a pic of it because it's very boring, plus I've only ever been on it not to it, but the first railway line between Liverpool & Manchester (1830) is flat and straight.
It goes right over a huge boggy mossland that caused *huge* engineering issues!
