A Glimpse of the Trains in Atlanta's Past
Tuesday, June 30, 2009 at 10:13PM
Here's a link to a great post via The Infrastructurist about old train stations and what they have become. Atlantans should be proud to see two former Atlanta train stations on the list and not to be left out, Savannah jumped in to bring the total for Georgia to 3 in the top 11. It amazes me how society has just discarded so many buildings that were examples of great architecture and offered in many cases great places for the public to go and enjoy their city. Let's hope that the heavy presence of Georgia buildings on the list isn't an indicator that the city has moved too far away from its train dependant past that it now can't take part in what is bound to be a great resurgence in train travel. Enjoy...
