....I often hopped on the Bus, here, during the early 60's, to get a good seat,instead waiting at the Depot ; I called this Bus Stop : The End of the Line in Downtown College Park.

...Before my family moved to Clayton County, we lived in South Atlanta. We had diesel powered Buses that was called "City Slickers", that traveled throughout the neighborhoods. This was during the late 50's
