An entire train and not one bit of graffiti to be seen. We used to have that. At what point did that trend get started? When did efforts to stop it cease? When did it become an accepted art form? I have met an individual in Roseville that posts pictures on a blog he writes specifically on freight car graffiti. The whole thing is fascinating and deeply disturbing at the same time.

The cars that get tagged with the most elaborate "Art" are the ones that sit for long periods for whatever reason. The unit trains seem to be immune because they are always in transit. The interseting part about this is it lets you know what the priority traffic is these days.
