The former Northeast line that served Doraville, known as the "heart of Atlanta's Asian community", was initially named the Yellow Line, which Asian-Americans found derogatory. MARTA switched to a color-based route naming system in October 2009, so the North-South or North Springs-Airport line became the Red Line, for example. Lines were identified by the direction of travel and/or terminii. Older system maps used orange to denote the North-South line and blue for the East-West line, including the Northeast and Proctor Creek branches. On weekends before 9pm, Green Line service is short-turned at King Memorial (stop E2). After 9pm, Green Line service is short-turned and operates as a shuttle between Bankhead (P4) and Vine City (stop W2). Green Line service terminates at Edgewood–Candler Park, while the Blue Line continues east to Indian Creek. Holmes (W5) while Green Line trains divert to Bankhead Station (P4).

After 9pm, the Red Line is short-turned and runs as a shuttle between North Springs (N11) and Lindbergh Center (N6), connecting to the Gold Line at Lindbergh Center. All MARTA trains are identified with a destination on electronic LCD signs on the front and sides of the train and on each car. ĭuring daytime hours, trains on the Red and Gold lines service the entire north-south trunk line and split north of Lindbergh Center (N6). Similarly, Bankhead is on a branch from the main east-west trunk and is designated (P4), a legacy of the original Proctor Creek name for the Green Line.
