Use the Georgia Tonnage map to tell you which lines are busiest.

If you join http://www.rrpicturearchives.net/ (free) you can use their tonnage map.

Folkston is usually pretty busy (OK, it’s south GA), and it seems like there is another spot in GA that advertises being busy. Check Trains…

Northeast Georgia or Northwest Georgia? If Northwest you will probably do better around Dalton,Ga (CSX crosses over NS) and it sees a fair amount of traffic.If in Northeast you will probably do best around Cornelia, Ga. There is a small yard in Tocca, Ga, about 15 miles south, but it is not accessable you can just see the top of it over a hill.
