Dear Cascade Patch: Love your post. I never lived in Atlanta but had relatives there in the Cascade area, on Veltre Circle. I grew up in Greensboro, N.C., and attended Fisk University in Nashville, Tenn., from 1956 to 1960. To get to to Nashville from Greensboro, I had to take the Southern Railroad to Atlanta and change to the L&amp;N Railroad to go to Nashville. When I stopped in Atlanta, I recall there were two stations. I also recall that we were not allowed to ride in a white cab. If no colored cabs were available, we had to walk across a bridge to the other station. I don't know when this practice ended but I do recall that this is how it was then. Thank your for sharing this history. —Cascade Patch Reader Kenneth Martin, New York City
