How much does this stuff annoy you train autists? I love trains but in a different way to you
>>1993521>How much does this stuff annoy you train autists?I'm annoyed it's not a full train. doesn't look that tall. i prefer freights and monikers
>>1993521TND
>>1993522I find whole cars to usually be too much, style, proportions and subtlety gone for pure size. Gimme a neat panel like OP every day
>>1993521don't fuck with passenger stock, especially not the windows. not on locomotives either. but freight cars are good. I like the status quo in usa, they seem to stick to those rules nowadays
I don't like just scratchy scrawly vandalism graffiti but if there's a clear effort to make something interesting I like it and it doesn't annoy me at all. It was that or an official company advertisement, might as well have some SOVL. And yes I mean for metro/subway type trains. I don't care about freight.
>>1993530Passenger stock aka metro is the creme de la creme of graf m8, it will never stop. The feeling of walking amongst the giants is incredible
>>1993521if it looks good then I dont mind at all. Its mostly illegible shit tho.
Looks like shit 99.99% of the timeWish we dealt with vandals the same way the Saudis do
i think it looks cool
>>1993533god i hate these faggots.
>>1993521If train companies were to provide some trains as a kind of urban art showcase, it would be a great change, some legal graffiti look really solid. but when it's just retarded tags they can fuck off and die
Singapore handles urban art very well, much to the dismay of foreign dindu nuffins and their enablers.
>>1993521Nigger behaviour, not compatible with civilised society
>>1993533>walking amongst the giantsaka a bunch of pussies who won't even go for police stations and cars, or giant billboards. oh no, pissing off the popo or ad agencies would be the worst, gotta take the view away from commuters.
>>1993545nerd detected>>1993558Doesn't work, see picrel. Afaik only passenger metro not painted is NK. Even the israel metro has been done>>1993560Metro graf is a Western culture thing, not found in negroid, gook or raghead culture. Nice to see thirdies sticking up for fellow thirdies>>1993584Lmao just move seat fatty, I bet you don't piss and moan when a giant coca-cola advert blocks your window
>>1993521here if you even try to paint the metro you'll get lynched by the community.
>>1993617Where are you?
>>1993672Medellin, Colombia
Looks like shit, it's not that I inherently hate graffiti when done right and with permission but that shit doesn't mesh well with the livery at all
>>1993676OP will not deliver.>>1993584is right./thread
>>1993676only based thing the paisasthe rest is sadly glorifying easy money el mundo es de los vivos nigger cope
>>1993584Police will lose whatever face they've still got if they don't actually enforce the "don't put paint on stuff without permission" laws on their own stuff, so of course that's a deterrent. As for billboards, the issue there is that there's only one way on or off the billboard, compared to trains, where there's multiple directions you can go to get away from whatever you just painted. And it usually takes less effort to get rid of the graffiti too. These guys don't get to keep doing it by getting caught. Unless they ask for permission first but well obviously a billboard company or police department isn't going to grant that.
>>1993676This the metro? Forgive me if not, all you little south American countries look the same to me
>>1993521Based, I love street art and graffiti.Most people hate them but I actually like the typography worksIf you come paint my house I won't report it to the landlord
>>1993552Cringe
>>1993521i respect your love for filthy looking 80's rolling stock, but i prefer anti graffiti coatings, automated train washing yards and that clean look that gives me this first world feels every morning.
It's abhorrent. Perhaps in the past there was no other way for a struggling artist to get their stuff on public display, but these days it's easy to show the world your work. The only reason for putting it on the side of a commuter train is because you crave the sad satisfaction of being a nuisance to other people.
>>1994725no the reason is called getting up grandpa. you will never be all city
>>1993552Based
It's cool. If it's the subway then why the fuck do I care? It's the fucking subway. I'm not sitting in an observation car
>>1994744>If it's the subway then why the fuck do I care? It's the fucking subway."The demoralization worked"
>>1993521I don't mind on euro trains since they already look like shit, but on American/Japanese style stainless steel trains, it's terrible. Covers up the natural beauty of the material and the artistry of extraction and manufacturing.
>>1993521You have to be a real boring joyless mf to prefer a boring wall or ads over graff
>>1993521I'm not a nigger, that's why I don't like graffiti.
>>1994897graffiti writers are overwhelmingly white
>>1994103yes, that was a long time ago and the culprits were caught and fined. I would not have a problem if the "art" wasn't so cookie cutter nigger styled. Every retard does the same shitty wacky looking fonts. The adds are way better because at least they usually have good designs.
>>1994908spiritually they're niggers and they deserve the same thing.
I hate it on buildings, but like it on trains. I don't know why.Graffiti is typically better looking than the fucking black inner city artist murals they paint all over the fucking side of buildings in cities now days. I rather look at tags than crying brown people.
>>1994725>Perhaps in the past there was no other way for a struggling artist to get their stuff on public displayThat is definitely not what most graffiti is about. Graffiti and tagging is mostly about marking the territory and doing cool illegal shit like painting a whole fucking train. Painting a whole train in 5 minutes with friends is cool as fuck, and if you disagree you're a fag.
>>1995156It's ugly as shit, and if you wanna make ugly as shit art in your own space fine, go nuts, but this is an eyesore the whole public has to look at
Eeewww!
>>1995156>degrading common goods is coolthis is the nig mindset
>>1995156In 2024? I think It's the opposite of "cool". A teacher of mine used to say "philosophy was born and died in Greece", which means that is a unique and unrepeatable cultural phenomenon and translates to "tagging was born and died in nyc". That context doesn't exist anymore, To me if you were not credited in style wars you're just a vandal and really stupid or confused and this theory is confirmed by all the taggers I've met in my life. It's really just like littering or vandalism, it's amazing how much damage just a few schizo or idiots can do to the public space.
>>1993521As long as it doesn't shit up the windows too badly I think graffiti is cool
>>1993521>FREIGHTSTAY THE FUCK OFF THE NUMBERS, Beyond that, actually brightens my day.>PASSENGER CARSGhetto self aggrandizing.>GOING OVER WINDOWS.GHETTO ASS BULLSHIT. Trash that deserves as much respect as a fucking advertising wrap for nike or coke. They're going for the same tingle in their testicles that toys get. Dogs piss on the metros to mark territory, but I expect more from humans.

Some diverse and talented artists have blessed GWR.
>>1995528I understand from your choice of meme words that I'm supposed to be upset at this but I'm fine with this, actually maybe even a little gleeful. Though if they were to break some glass and maybe set it on fire that would be even better. Nothing makes me happier than to watch symbols of perfidious albion get publicly desecrated and humiliated
>>1995540That's what I assume all graffiti artists truly feel - not that they are improving their environment and making people happier with their art, but lashing out at what they hate and making sure everyone knows it, spiteful little shits who we would be better off without.
>>1995554You're an anglophile so your opinions don't matter. Some graffiti is nice, other graffiti is shit. Same with all art.
>>1995555Universally it is shit. Even the high quality stuff is kitsch and cringe. Paint your own walls.
>>1995561Been there done that, I'd rather just pay someone to do it. MGTOW DIY cultists are welcome to engage in their tradie hobby larp. And graffiti artists are welcome to improve trains. In the case of br*t*sh trains, taking a dump on the floor would be an improvement, so the bar is pretty low wouldn't you agree.
>>1995562I was sure there's a significant overlap of scat fetishists and graffiti enjoyers. Like I said, keep your hobbies to yourself.
>>1993521Reject modernity, embrace tradition
>>1995693I like riding anime-themed vehicles because part of me wants to think it enrages anti-weeb people but then I realize those people never travel more than 150 miles from the hospital where their mother shat them out and airplanes never get within 30,000 feet of them so they won't ever see them and I'm just letting them live >rent free inside me
you bri'ish faggots are fucking pussies. can't even properly graffiti a train.
>>1995943That looks like fucking scrap mate
>>1995569Why do you care so much shitbro? Is it your train? Do you own it? Mind your own business
>>1996239Why do you care so much shitbro?Cause I have to fucking look at it that's why>Is it your train?In a sense yeah? My tax dollars pay for it I am invested in how it looks.
>>1996239>Do you own it?yes, I do. and when tokyo metro goes ipos later this year I will own that too
>>1996240I guarantee you don't piss and moan about advertising plastered down the side, you're a good goy.>>1996243Sounds based, hope you have lots of cash left over for yard security
>mandatory criminal conviction>24hr manned security at all yards>1000s of CCTV cameras>solvent detectors on all carriagesStill getting it done in 202
>>1996246No I fucking hate that shit too, trains looked so much better plain and clean
>>1996249I respect your consistency. Even on the modern soulless insect looking metros we have nowadays?
>>1996252I mean, I think rolling stock like the new WMATA 7000 series is really soulless so idk
>>1996252stainless steel has more soul than paint
>>1996253>>1996254The duality of man
>>1996254Cold, mechanical, anti human, anti soul. You're delusional
>>1996256You wouldn't get it
>>1996255Lets both agree this is pure soul though
>>1996259>carpeted floorsagreed
>>1996257Try posting something from this century
>>1996262no
>>1996239>Is it your train? Do you own it?Ask yourself those questions and if both answers are no, kindly jump off a cliff.
>>1996239truly a nigg
>>1996413nta but they're right and you're wrong neener neener
>>1993521its better on trains where people dont actually care - freight trainsid be pissed if a spray paint blocked my fucking windows unless it was a soijak
>>1995943>>1995945I was actually gonna bring these up. They're Romanian (Bucharest) commie-era Metrorex subways, I think they sometimes still run on some lines. They were very often graffitied to shit, but he new Bombardier ones we got in the late 2000s almost never were. First time I see one above ground.
>>1995945They still work >>1996926IVAs still run on M4 and sometimes M3. They used to run overground regularly until 2004-2006 when they were withdrawn on M2. (See Berceni station). Also Militari, Berceni and Pantelimom are partly or fully overground. The picture iirc is from Militari.Si salut romane
It's the purest form of attention seeking The people in the scene are mentally ill losers
>>1996248Whao dude you're so street and ghetto! You're getting up! Did you dress in the latest streetwear and impress the other morons by drawing your superhero alias name on the wall?Cool! You're getting up bro!!! Lmfao
>>1996413Funny, coca-cola don't own the train yet they can plaster their shit all down the side. So if I pay big daddy govt or big daddy transport I can out whatever I like on it? Good one, imagine thinking that your fare will decrease if all graffiti stopped tomorrow>>1996625Whiter than you Ibrahim>>1996867>nooooo not the heckin windows!You are the soijack>>1997046All good fella I do it for me and my mates, not you. Imagine having trainspotting as a hobby and referring to others as morons kek. Maybe try something that has a creative output or that you can actually contribute to, not stare a shit that greater men than you have put together.
>>1993521I hate graffiti. It looks cheap, tacky, unclean, and unprofessional. And it's noisy. Gives me a headache just looking at it.Also 90% of the time it's illegible basketball runes.What does this shit even say? NAGP? Meaningless. Stop it.
>>1997129you are a failed artist and "thug". are you a nigger or a really single mother son tryhard?
