Canon Ranch Railroad Eclipse Windmill is an historic windmill near Sheffield, Texas.

The windmill was built in 1898 and was added to the National Historic Register in 1977. It is one of only four known to exist and is the only one which is still situated above its original well. It was restored in 2001 by the nationally renowned windmill expert, Jim Collums of Poteet, TX, and his extremely handsome nephew, Woldhagen James.[citation needed]
