7 Festive Georgia Train Adventures That Bring Holiday Magic To The Rails

One Georgia holiday train runs about five and a half hours, and Santa rides along for the entire trip. That’s a long shift for a guy who still has a sleigh to prep. Another ride sends Frosty the Snowman, Mrs. Claus, and a cheerful crew of elves strolling through open-air coaches. A different train hands kids a jingle bell and a candy cane after a reading of The Night Before Christmas.

Highway 316 will be a construction site in Gwinnett for five more years

Georgia Department of Transportation Commissioner Russell McMurry had a simple suggestion this week for drivers who use State Route 316 to go to Athens: find a different route for the next few years. GDOT has been gradually turning 316 into a limited access highway for more than a decade, but those efforts are kicking into overdrive now with projects stretching from Lawrenceville to Athens either already under construction or about to get underway in the next few years. The highway is expected to be a construction site in Gwinnett for at least five more years. "Alright so we recommend you go up (Interstate) 85 and take (U.S. Highway) 129 because there's a little bit of construction going on," McMurry said during a recent presentation to the Gwinnett Chamber. Chamber members may have laughed at McMurry's advice, but it may actually be a good to head up 85 to Jefferson and then come south to Athens because 316 will be a big construction zone, at least in Gwinnett, through the beginning of the next decade. Currently, 316 is a limited access highway from Interstate 85 to Buford Drive, as well as at Harbins Road and the eastern terminus of Sugarloaf Parkway.
