The Burger Bus of Ball Ground

The Burger Bus is an authentic electric trackless trolley that shuffled people around Downtown Atlanta from 1948 to 1963. After it and others completed their final route, Cecil Ingram of Ball Ground purchased several of the trolleys, including #1386. Shortly after that, brothers Harrold and Lamar Harris of Harris Lumber Company bought that bus and used it as their office building. T. Y. Brown visited the Harris Lumber Company many times and became enamored with the stationary vehicle. Eventually T. Y. Brown’s son, Dylan, purchased the rusty bus, intending to turn it into the fine eating establishment it is today.
