As an example a typical modern wagon can hold up to 113 tonnes (125 short tons) of freight on two four-wheel bogies the track distributes the weight of the train evenly allowing significantly greater loads per axle and wheel than in road transport leading to less wear and tear on the permanent way This can save energy compared with other forms of transport such as road transport which depends on the friction between rubber tyres and the road Trains have a small frontal area in relation to the load they are carrying which reduces air resistance and thus energy usage. Basketball Water is provided by various county and a few city systems Several of these systems actually serve parts of neighboring counties and cities as well the Cobb-Marietta Water Authority serves not only Cobb but also parts of neighboring Paulding and Cherokee counties for example During drought or other emergency cities and counties can enact outdoor water-use restrictions however some cross-jurisdiction water systems have also acted to put bans in place in late September 2007 the state Environmental Protection Division of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources stepped-in with its first-ever ban covering most of the northern half of the state While surface water is by far the primary source of water for the region the drought had many systems (and a few wealthy homeowners) drilling new wells for ground water though the local water table is around 400 feet (120 m) deep on average.

Georgia 92.svg State Route 92 The most common birds are the Brown Thrasher (the GA state bird) American crow European (or common) starling American robin mourning dove house sparrow northern cardinal purple finch Carolina chickadee tufted titmouse bluejay white-breasted nuthatch eastern bluebird mockingbird brown-headed nuthatch and the Carolina wren Birds of prey thrive in the area with three varieties of hawks common near open fields in even the most populated areas Falcons roost on skyscrapers in downtown Atlanta and can be regularly seen feasting on pigeons the American kestrel is sometimes seen Late in the year three species of owls can be heard nightly in wooded areas Various woodpeckers can be seen in forested lots including the red-bellied woodpecker northern flicker (also known as the "red-shafted flicker") and the downy woodpecker the red-headed woodpecker is common in open fields and on golf courses the American goldfinch is present mostly in winter and the ruby-throated hummingbird only in summer, The area's subsoil is a dense clay soil colored rusty by the iron oxide present in it it becomes very muddy and sticky when wet and hard when dry and stains light-colored carpets and clothing easily it also tends to have a low pH further aggravating gardeners the fineness of it also means it is easily deposited into streams during heavy rains creating silt problems where it is exposed due to construction This transported red soil can be seen downstream on the riverbanks of south Georgia (where the native clay is white) and down to the Florida panhandle (where the native sand is also white) Topsoil is present only in natural forest areas created by the decomposition of leaf litter. Fifty-five thousand students are enrolled in 106 schools in Atlanta Public Schools some of which are operated as charter schools Atlanta is served by many private schools including without limitation Atlanta Jewish Academy Atlanta International School the Westminster Schools Pace Academy the Lovett School the Paideia School Holy Innocents' Episcopal School and Roman Catholic parochial schools operated by the Archdiocese of Atlanta. ; 14 Matt Joyce 67/19 89/32 Electric locomotives draw power from a stationary source via an overhead wire or third rail Some also or instead use a battery in locomotives that are powered by high voltage alternating current a transformer in the locomotive converts the high voltage low current power to low voltage high current used in the traction motors that power the wheels Modern locomotives may use three-phase AC induction motors or direct current motors Under certain conditions electric locomotives are the most powerful traction.[citation needed] They are also the cheapest to run and provide less noise and no local air pollution.[citation needed] However they require high capital investments both for the overhead lines and the supporting infrastructure as well as the generating station that is needed to produce electricity Accordingly electric traction is used on urban systems lines with high traffic and for high-speed rail.
