LOL.

I'm curious if anyone knows if its safe to travel MARTA. I have to go to Atlanta next month on business and will likely use the train. I have never been on a subway in my life.:(

Well, I've used it and it seemed okay. But frankly I wouldn't want my wife or kids on it, especially after the sun goes down. The cops are more interested in arresting people for 'token' violations than anything else.

It's not really a matter of safety so much as uselessness. MARTA is the only metro rail system that doesn't seem to go anywhere - just from one ghetto to another. Every other rail system I've used in the US, even the little one in Los Angeles, has been pretty good. MARTA is just a jobs program.
