Dunkirk Historical Museum Unveiling New Display iCal

Saturday, September 5 2026 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM

While area residents probably know all about Brooks Locomotive Works and ALCO, few have heard of the Dunkirk Engineering Company, makers of a unique type of locomotive essential to logging for the American building boom at the turn of the last century. Visitors are invited to the Dunkirk Historical Museum on Saturday, September 5th at 11am for a brief look at the company's history and its impact, presented by Roger Schulenberg. Visitors will get a first look at the new display, complete with an accurate scale model created by Richard Schulenberg of one of these amazing and unique locomotives. The Dunkirk Historical Museum is located at 513 Washington Avenue in Dunkirk, across from Washington Park. Usual hours are MWF 9a-12p, Weds 4:30-6p, and first Saturdays 10a-2p.
