Colourful train carriages at Te Maunga






Funny the things I see on my travels, even to and from work seems to find something on a weekly basis. This week twice now I've seen this long line of train carriages parked on the train tracks near my workplace, I can't make out what alot of the graffiti says but I do think people that do this are rather clever don't you?

Why not make the trains colorful?

When I worked at the polytech I got to know a group of kids who did the most fantastic graffiti. It is such an art! I think it transforms that train!

It's a common spot for graffiti those train carriages. I always see good artwork in them too.

Some graffiti looks junky, but this looks artful. Definitely takes some talent to do this! Great photos.

it is isn't it? artwork should be encouraged as long as it's not unwanted graffiti, maybe a mural somewhere?

agree :-)

I think the owner of the carriages has hired people to do this. It looks really nice.

Very striking graffiti. I had never thought about it but I guess that graffiti on train cars is truly a world wide thing.

It is considered art now according to an exhibition in amsterdam from the museum of the city of new york who collected graffiti from the seventies until now and has a big collection of tags and paintings on the subway cars in the early days.
