These are taken just east of downtown Atlanta. Pullman Yard is heavily fenced since a student snuck into one the buildings and fell to his death a few years ago, so I was limited on composition-the first shot was through a chain-link fence. It has recently been sold to Atomic Entertainment and they are redeveloping it. It was used in the filming on "The Fast & the Furious" "Hunger Games" and many other movies. The bottom image is the first published rendering of the redevelopment.

Was this the place where passenger rail train cars were made.

It was a satellite operation to the main yard in Chicago. It was acquired and dispersed of during the many mergers and spin-offs after Pullman lost the anti-trust case in the 1940's.
