1st time to Nashville. Stumbled upon this place looking for something to do. As I began to pull…read morethis place up on my yelp app an overly eager and rude employee standing outside yelled from about 50 feet away 'Do you have a tour ticket?" Just as I started to sit down on a bench outside. My butt hadn't even touched the bench yet and I replied 'no' as I didn't have a ticket yet. The employee then yelled ' well you can't sit there'...the benches were completely empty with only a few people standing outside. Is this a common practice? Running off potential customers to preserve a few benches that aren't being used? If so, it's a terrible business model. Also train your employees to have a better customer service disposition to potential customers. He could have easily said 'Can I interest you all in a tour?'...but no he had to show us who was in charge and ran us off. But cool with me. I don't want to patronize places like this anyway. There is a million things to do in this city.

You pick up your prepaid tickets at the window and board the train on the assigned car. We had premier tickets which include a souvenir picture and bag and also a charcuterie snack along with comfy seats in one of the train cars. We then took an hour ride up to McCaysville, GA that abuts Cooperhill, TN. There is a great spot right along Main Street where you can take pictures right on the GA/TN line. There is a two hour window where you can sightsee and grab a meal. On the ride back we were asked to switch seats to the other side of the car so that everyone gets a chance to set on the Taccoa River side. Some of us went to the snack car and also got to purchase more souvenirs. Also sat in the open air cars for a while. Those seats are not as comfy but the views might be better there. Ms. Eleanor our host for the trip was fantastic and treated us like family. She knew all the facts and history of the area and gave us great suggestions on places to visit. This was a great day trip and we even spent some time wandering the shops in Blue Ridge before heading back to the metro.

This former train depot was built by Louisville and Nashville Railroad company in the late 1890 or…read moreso. I couldn't find an exact date but there are photos of the depot from 1910. In the photos it shows not only a small waiting room but also storage space for farmers to store goods that could be transported out of town for sale. (There were no bathrooms in the original design) This depot definitely was built before the Woodstock one which was built in 1912..... The good citizens of Holly Springs begin restoring this place to its original glory in 1999. According to the city's website they spent quite a bit of time trying to restore it as historically accurately as possible. No detail was too minute. Even the roof was restored to its former glory thanks to phots from J. B. Owen (a park in Holly Springs is named after him) who was the last ticketing agent before the depot was closed. It is now a event space for rent. You can go on the city's website and fill out an application. http://www.hollyspringsga.us/departments/parks_and_recreation/historic_train_depot_rental.php I just love these old historical buildings in the middle of the city because they not only remind us of where we came from but how far we have come...it's a beautiful additional to already a charming city....

I am torn how to rate this Megabus stop (and the ride from Chattanooga to Knoxville and then…read moreLexington) because it was not great, BUT I still appreciate Megabus for what it is! Clean, cheap, safe, direct travel. I would rate the stop a 5 because it has tons of parking, is well lit, has an indoor lobby with seating and clean restrooms, and during the day - a food court. It's also located in the same parking lot as a city bus stop, so I imagine it would be easy to catch transportation from there. However, while I waited for my bus to Lexington, which was 40 minutes late, I saw the bus to Atlanta arrive, about 20-30 minutes late. So this doesn't seem to be a stop that is dependable for its schedule. The bus ride itself was fine but there were lots of people with obnoxious ring tones and text message alerts on their phones, which was particularly unwelcome at midnight on an overnight bus ride in which I'd hoped to sleep. As usual, THE BUS WAS FREEZING!!! But I've learned to dress for winter anytime I ride a Megabus. The bus arrived in Lexington 1 hour behind schedule (6:00 am instead of 4:55 am) but I wasn't on a tight schedule personally, so the hour delay was worth the convenience and price to me. This Megabus experience was very different than my (totally positive) Megabus experiences in Texas, but I would still recommend it for people with lots of time and not much money! ;)

Definitely cannot beat the price. However, the ride was not the most comfortable. By the time I got on the bus, everyone had taken their seat as well as placed their things in the one next to them. Oh, I love selfishness on public transportation... and I've seen a lot of it after living in NYC for many years. When I finally got someone to move their personal items, it was a bit uncomfortable crunching both of us in-- especially as I was trying not to touch my already annoyed seat mate. These problems were exacerbated by the fact that there was no overhead storage for your bags so they had to be held in your lap or placed on the floor. I will say that I appreciated the free Wi-Fi and plugs at every seat, though-- Getting to watch some NetFlix for 2 hours did distract me long enough to get home.

Rating is for Marta overall mainly gold & red line. In leu of Peachtree road race 2025 our family…read morehad the smart idea to park at Marta then ride and walk to the hotel. This cuts out the $50 a day for hotel parking, the Doraville station has surface & parking deck areas, two nights was $16. Lenox station is cheaper FYI. I had only rode Marta one other time before this and it was over 10 years prior, I was mainly traveling solo on Marta this time. For the Doraville station be sure not to park in the front parking as this is NOT overnight and you will be towed. The ticketed parking is just beside with minimal security. Doraville is the gold line that goes into Lenox where the race starts; our stop was Peachtree center. The trick to going from Peachtree back to Lenox is to know that both red & gold run on same track, which I didn't. I got on the train saying North Springs and ended up at Medical Center before realized, rode back to Lindbergh then gold to Lenox. The train itself is minimally occupied unless a big event is going on. It was somewhat clean as meaning no visible trash. There are homeless persons all around the escalators underground and you may get accosted on the platform but just be smart. I put the Breeze mobile app on and bought 3 day pass for $16, my main issue was the QR code picking up on the scanner. Every time I dreaded it because would never scan on first, 2nd, maybe 3rd try if was lucky. Overall IMO, Marta is a deal at $2.50 to go all over the city pretty quickly. It can be a little sketchy at night but just be aware of surroundings.

I usually come here when I don't want my mom to come all the way to the airport to pick me up. The Doraville Station is exactly what it is -- it's one of the safer stations I would say. But it's really nothing special. MARTA itself needs a lot of work and it's really outdated. The last time I was here, the elevator was broken so I had to carry hella luggage down the stairs and that was pretty disastrous. But it is what it is. If you're looking for affordable transportation to the airport and you don't wanna ask for a ride or can't find a ride, at least find a ride here so you can go from here.

So this place has numerous taps on the wall with everything from water to meads. But most are beers, ales, lagers, and seltzers. For this type operation, patrons are given a wristband that you scan at each tap you wish to try. To activate the wristband, you have to input your credit card info with the cashier (which is who gives you the wristband. After which, you pour as much or little as you want as you are charged by the ounce (prices vary but are labeled by each tap). There are inverted water spigots to rinse your glass should you change your drink of choice. We sampled a few different ones and they were pretty good. They also serve food here (we didn't try anything). There is some outside seating as well. But no one was seated there cause it was cold outside. The owner was pleasant and the atmosphere was chill mid-afternoon, mid-week. it's all paid street parking or fee-based public lots (monitored).

Marta promised reliability and frequent stops. ALL ARE LIES because TALK IS CHEAP…read more Marta is one of the worst transportation systems, period (Europe and other places in the USA have more logistically sound platforms).. Marta just replaced eliminated bases and DID NOT THINK TO TELL PAYING CUSTOMERS. Marta said for months there would be better routes, and that routes would change. There was no communication that they were eliminating buses at the station. This effects how people get to work, it that they care. Me and another customer asked why the bus was LATE, And he said it was because the route changes (so much for more frequent rides/times). Also, the imbecile who is driving the route does not even know how his schedule has changed. And didn't care about the people who were paying to ride his bus (they make you pay via credit card now). The customer service is atrocious, as is the homeless people who ruin the experience.

Overall it's a decent network if not groundbreaking, but the bus from the airport (I've only taken it once) was a nightmare that took forever (never again). It reminded me of some of the awful buses to LAX and JFK, only Nashville doesn't have the excuse of being a huge endless metropolis. Anyway, My Tummy Aches.
