Ground transportation at ATL

I'm curious to know if there's any kind of commuter train at ATL? I
need to go form ATL to Harris and Cuurtland in Atlanta (11.3 miles
according to Yahoo Maps). I can't drive. I'm looking for an
inexpensive, but efficient way to make the trip. I know those two
things don't go together, but if there's a commuter train that goes from
the airport, or some kind of express bus, that would be really good.
Thanks.

Don't know the particular intersection, but the MARTA train goes to
the airport from downtown.

They have a excellent public transportation line directly to the airport

Not sure how close it will get you to your destination, but will get you to
Atlanta.

Harris & Courtland is downtown by the Atlanta Hilton Towers Hotel.
Take the MARTA train from the airport to the Peachtree Center
Station and head EAST from the station. Courtland & Harris
is a block or two from the station. Piece of cake.

MARTA serves ATL.
