About this map

Industrial and rail hubs define this landscape along the border of Massachusetts and New Hampshire, where the Miller River and its tributaries powered a dense network of nineteenth-century mill villages. The confluence of the Cheshire Railroad and Fitchburg Railroad at Winchendon and Baldwinville created vital transportation corridors for the timber and furniture industries. These rail lines follow the river valleys, connecting established centers like Athol and Gardner with smaller manufacturing outposts such as Waterville, Hydeville, and Powers Mills.
