Marietta, Georgia has national distinction as part of the Great Locomotive Chase, one of the most daring raids by Union spies during the Civil War. In 1862, a group of volunteers from the Union army snuck behind southern lines and boarded “The General” at the Marietta train station. In nearby Kennesaw, James Andrews and his band of “Andrew’s Raiders” hijacked the train while the crew disembarked for a lunch break. The chase ended when they ran out of fuel, but not before Andrews and his men sabotaged extensive parts of the track and local telegram lines.

Nowadays, Marietta is a modern suburb of Atlanta, located in Cobb County.
