I like the way the train operator blasts two horns with the train nearly entering the station. That is what is done on Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) lines. Your photography and live recording are excellent. "If he can do it, so can she."

I grew up riding the blue line trains from H.E. Holmes to Dome to go to the Georgia Dome for football games and other events before moving to Texas in 2013. Thanks for making this!

Yessss! MARTA Trains! Bankhead Branch has always been a curious oddity for me. 2-Car Trains for me usually means a Shuttle train like Franklin Shuttle or The Broad-Ridge Spur in Philadelphia. This is a full blown line with just 2-cars and it's station is so tiny, it makes Franklin Ave on the shuttle look huge.

MARTA never really wanted to build the line, but they were obligated to, so they cut it to a 1-station branch and built only a 2-car platform. Thankfully they're now expanding it to a full size 8-car platform.

I was sad when they didn't build Perry Homes station that was supposed to be after Bankhead.

marta can actually run fully automatically, all the trains can either be manually driven or put on a kind of "auto pilot" setting where the trains computer drives, and the conductor just has to open and close the doors.

The person in the lead car is the train operator. I hope the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority will choose to automate the rest of it lines, even if it means one line at a time.
