Hulsey Yard at downtown Atlanta was the largest intermodal facility in the southeast for a while. Last I heard was that it was going to be thoroughly torn out but CSX backtracked on getting rid of Hulsey completely. Tilford Yard (ex L&N) was torn out. Armour Yard was used for Amtrak Crescent cars and was previously used by Southern Railway transfer runs, which were never less than 100 cars and always seen with a trio of GP9s. Those big trains ran between Hulsey and Armour, until Hulsey's conversion to intermodal in the 1980s. The transfer track between these yards was torn out in the 80s and is now a rail trail.
Nice! Thanks for this! Those trolleys were interesting! If you have any sort of video series about Kansas City or just Kansas in general, could you please upload it soon? Just a request, though.
Since I'm from Jonesboro (McDonough really), I remember the slang term for MARTA when it was born. I won't say it here because it's kinda racial. The Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum has a few of the old Southern engines and also has the famous #4501 Mikado. Cheers from an ex-Georgian in eastern TN

ARTCO sounds a lot better than MARTA
