I used to hate rr art, but have come to appreciate the talent of some of those kids. Too bad most, if not all, of it will go to waste.

I saw a video a RR employee did , he was like hey kids , you want your art not to get painted over , cause I hate painting cars

these numbers , do not paint over these and we won't have to repaint the car.
the numbers at the corners of the cars with all the weights and such , basically as long as those don't get painted over the RR won't spend the money to repaint the cars

Just part of our culture the way I see it. Most stuff is English letters but words I can not comprehend. I spose it all has meaning to someone.

Nope, nothing smart about it. Vandalism and nothing more by folks that are likely mooching off the system and too lazy to get a real job. You likely wouldn't care to have them put their 'starving artist' work across the side of your house....

canvas is $$$ my artist gets offered cavasses from time to time , pick a nice day , lay them out on saw horses in the yard , a quick run with the orbital sander , re stretch a few and 2-3 coats of fresh gesso to repurpose canvases

even the Gesso is up to about 45 a gallon.

Pretty good talent to paint something like that. Thanks for sharing. I know the RR doesn’t appreciate the art work. But I can not remember a time that RR cars where not never graffiti????

Rolling out of Chicago I think there is more graffiti then the original paint on some of them RR cars

I hate seeing the mess of graffiti on rail cars but if all were art like that it would be fun to see.

Grow up, Gary. You think it's ok to vandalize private property because it looks neat and i dont. No need to take offense...

Bet all that overspray is fun to get of those new cars.

I really doubt they park the cars in funky town with new cars inside...I'm sure they're empty.
Anyway, I made a simple comment that it's good artwork. Some of you Karen's took it a different direction so you need to queef and get the pressure outta your system. lol

Always enjoy watching the art go by when stopped at a crossing.
I don't care what anyone thinks.
It's an art form,
Painted for viewing.

That one is special for sure.

All locked behind gates in az ca and other areas……

I am sure most pay for it,,,,,

Train cars with automobiles are locked in yard until switched back on the tracks and running.

I see some fairly regularly, even have seen that one with the Meskin hat a few times. Even saw a gondola with 4 "Hobo's" in it down in the city.
