The Polar Express or Atlanta Street Car
This is a video of the Atlanta Street Car cruising through the city. Unlike Marta trains, the Atlanta Street Car travels on the main road with other cars. A similarity between Marta trains and the Atlanta Street Car is that they both run on tracks. The Atlanta Street Car has tracks that are embedded into the streets of Atlanta that help guide it throughout the city.
This audio clip is what the Atlanta Street Car sounds like as it passes by. It is usually very loud so it is hard to miss. The Atlanta Street Car tends to let off a few honks of its extremely loud horn to signal to pedestrians not to cross the road when the Street Car is coming.
