Overview
The Atlanta Northern Railway was interurban line that connected Atlanta and Marietta, Georgia, starting in July 1905. The line ceased operations in early 1947, giving way to competition from motor vehicles. The interurban line more or less paralleled the Western & Atlantic Railroad, a state-owned line that connected Atlanta and Chattanooga, Tennessee.
