Dunsmuir Travel Guide — Things to Do, Food & Hotels
city in Siskiyou County, California, United States
About Dunsmuir
Dunsmuir has always been tied to the railroad lines that still run through the city. Sitting near the top of a steep grade, the Central Pacific RR chose this location for a service facility and engine house for the helper engines that assisted in moving trains up and down the steep grade. A town grew near the facility, eventually becoming the city of Dunsmuir.
