The Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) is preparing for the 2018 College Football National Championship.

MARTA reported it will offer additional rail service beginning at 5 a.m. on Jan. 8, until 2 a.m. on Jan. 9, as the Georgia Bulldogs and Alabama Crimson Tide face-off in Atlanta.







Thanks MARTA for serving ITP in wonderful fashion

Considering that folks should be home in their beds by midnight, this is pretty good! :-)

Seriously, though - the game starts at 8:00 pm. If it goes on like the Rose Bowl, it should be over around midnight. 2:00 am does seem a bit early.

You're assuming the secret service is going to let them run trains that close to the President.

I am sure they have met with MARTA, MARTA PD, and APD. When the president was at Peachtree Center for a fundraiser, trains traveled in the tunnels, but did not stop at Peachtree Center Station.
