I'm thinking somewhere along the Merrimack River. A major B&M rail line follows the Merrimck River from Lowell Ma. to Franklin NH. It follows the Winnepesaukee River to Laconia.
B&M owned the track that went out through Florida Mountain (the Hoosac Tunnel). That's the area where the Housatonic River begins, I believe. Could be a reference to a bridge up that way.
