In Singapore, they jail you. Recently, a Swiss national went into a MRT and painted a beautiful scene, but the Government was not amused.
Sure is expensive!
I suspect one issue with rail car graffiti is painting over the rail car identification numbers. Rail cars have identifiers similar to a bar code. It is the way that the railroad tracks the location and progress of the product being shipped, similar to a Fed-X tracking number. When graffiti like this is painted over those identifiers, it can cause problems. Just sayin’.
Sad, isn’t it?!! Around here, in the city, if there is graffiti [and the ‘artists’/gang members are seen defacing property – be it private property or city owned], the parents have to pay the damages…and the KIDS have to clean it up and serve jail time.
Ohhhhhhhhhh, thank you thank you—for the information on the ship, Pigeon Point!!! I too have grown to love ships [with a Navy husband]…and anything worthy of what I see, and you finding information for me…it’s all so much appreciated.
Come back to my blog on Friday…I’m gonna post some more on another sight I saw that I’ve never EVER seen before. You may have tho. But it was phenomenal.
Graffiti is vandalism and as you point out costs us out of pocket $$.. and yet there’s something about it that I find artistic .. not condoning just occasionally admiring and I know that’s nutz
Living in the city, I can’t tell you how angry graffiti makes me! Bridges, buildings — my garage, once! — I just don’t understand people marking things that are not their own.
You cannot claim my garage by putting your tag on it!

We see lots of colorful graffiti here in Seattle and some of it is actually quite artistic, but it is still defacing property and what city/community can afford one more thing to clean up. Sad is the total lack of respect for property that does not belong to them! Great shot for the day!

That same looking *2010* is on my homies graffiti post.
I think railcars are the perfect place for graffiti. Better there than natural settings. Plus there’s some real talent out there.
it is a shame when I see graffiti out in nature or on a house, but it looks ok on the railcars for some reason.
We used to buy our own paint to cover the graffiti in the neighborhood. It was always disheartening to find new spots for cleaning.
I’ve stared at this picture for way too long. Is it me, or does it not spell anything? I’m feeling stupid. But it could be my exhaustion setting in since all I do these days is stay up until 3:00am reading dirty filthy books that make Falls Creek look super innocent.
I recently read that the city’s anti-graffiti guys here painted over a commissioned work of art, thinking that it was graffiti. I had no idea the cost of cleanup was so great for all of us.
those dots on the dates are also very common. i see them all the time. pretty pastel colors on the downbound train.
