Commuter rail (a la NY's Long Island Rail Road) would be a more suitable option than MARTA to Athens.
Obviously, but something that limits the amount of train switching (hence, MARTA controlling all of it).
There are already some perfect rail lines running from ATL out through Dacula and into Athens (I think Norfolk Southern owns them?). It has always been a personal dream of mine that they would modify Sanford so that the famous railroad tracks behind the East endzone would drop off fans at the stadium.

MARTA could be the legal operator of commuter rail but it would be a different system than the current subway setup. No way they'll extend an existing rail line all the way out to Athens, it's not feasible.

Your great grandkids may be able to take advantage of that. No way that is happening any time soon.
