About Fitchburg

Fitchburg is a city located in north-central Massachusetts, about 50 miles northwest of Boston. It was founded in 1764 and was named after John Fitch, an early American inventor and steamboat pioneer. Fitchburg played a significant role in the industrial revolution, particularly in the transportation industry. The city was a major hub for the manufacturing of railroad locomotives and carriages, contributing to the growth of the railroad system in the United States.

Freight transportation has always been an important part of Fitchburg's economy. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the city was a major center for the production of freight cars and locomotives. The Fitchburg Railroad, which was later acquired by the Boston and Maine Railroad, connected the city to other major industrial centers in New England. Today, Fitchburg is still served by freight rail lines, providing businesses with convenient access to transportation networks for the movement of goods.
