The wheel at Metamora, Indiana is an undershot wheel and probably dates to the 1860's, when the Whitewater Canal towpath was made into a railroad grade. The railroad continued to sell water power and the wheel was installed directly in a lock. The wheel continues to operate as a tourist attraction.
