Narrative:

#2 engine turbine section came apart during takeoff atl runway 26L, approximately 400 ft. We were at normal takeoff thrust. Aircraft flew well. We kept the wing dirty, and flew a visual pattern to runway 26R. Single engine landing was uneventful. Copilot, flight attendants, tower and crash crew were all performing well. All cockpit procedures and post event paper work were completed.
