Had to share this one. I hauled trash out of Bailey yard in North Platte and saw some great art. [Linked Image]

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.

It isn't a house. They're painting railroad cars.

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.
