455 Market Street Connersville, IN , 47331 Phone: (765) 825-2054 Website The Whitewater Valley Railroad is a heritage railroad in southeastern Indiana between Connersville and Metamora. It is dedicated to the preservation and presentation of a 1950s era of branch line railroading. It is now operated by vintage diesel switchers and road switchers during most of the year. Steam operations vary from year to year, see the railroad's website. The most recent steam locomotive donated to the organization is New York Central B-10W 0-6-0 #6894. It is nearly identical to the last steam engines operated on the line. It is currently being evaluated for eligibility for the National Register of Historic Places. This may allow for funding options to restore the locomotive to operation.
All have 'Whitewater Valley Railroad' on them. Designs are:
1) Caboose,
2) Diesel Engine,
3) Steam engine.
