    Historic beam engine to rescue stranded Wiltshire boaters

    A historic beam engine is to be fired up and put into action tomorrow to allow marooned boaters to navigate the Kennet and Avon Canal between Burbage and Wootton Rivers.

    About 12 lock gates were padlocked today after the modern pumping system at Crofton which controls water in the canal suffered a catastrophic failure.
