This route guide is written
for those who want to know more about the historic Whitewater Valley
Railroad. It helps to answer the questions of train passengers who ask,
"Where are we and what once happened here?" The Indiana route used by
the Whitewater Valley Railroad has a long transportation history. It
started as the Whitewater River, then became the White Water Valley
Canal. By 1865, railroads took over. Once operated by New York Central's
"Big Four" - Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago & St. Louis Railway -
today the line between Connersville and Metamora is operated by the
Whitewater Valley Railroad, a tourist railroad providing service to the
former canal town of Metamora. This book provides information on the
railroad's history and equipment, as well as a mile-by-mile guide.
