Some fuckers have been leaving cans with the stock caps still on them laying all over the only chill spot I've found around here. A beatdown may be in order.
I have something to add to this subject...There is this dumb ass toy where i live, that goes into active mainline yards during the day, this yard is hard enough to paint at night time let alone day time, this fool will go so close to the station its a wonder brakeman,engineers and other associates of the railroad don't hear the sound of spray paint cans. Being this stupid and careless, this yard has taken it upon there selves to setup surveillance cameras. These cameras are top of the line, they are on high polls, they move 360 degrees, now thanks to this toy we can't even paint there, and that yard always had good shit rolling threw, well thats my two cents. p's y'all, ehwol
reading this post was very helpfull. i have a very chill spot but i always paint both sides of about 20 cars once a week, ill hit the whole line. and i go there during the day all the time. im very carefull to never leave my trash behind and to watch for the numbers, but i never realized deystroying whole lines could blow up my spot. does anyone out there think i may have already blown my spot up? how long should i wait to return. im thinking to take 2 weeks off.

Originally posted by Drunk Sober I have a different opinion about things like the numbers, painting more than 2 cars on a line, all that shit. You see, I have lived on a train line for 4 years, and though it is great to see fresh shit almost daily, I will tell you the downside. The train conductors like to blow thier whistles at 3 and 4 in the morning to fuck with all the people trying to sleep. If it was something that only happend once in a while it would be one thing. Also there aint a spot for about a mile or more that a car crosses the tracks, so there is no reason at all to be blowing the whistle. Im sure it would be a kick to do that, but its fucked when you are on the other end of the spectrum. So I say no respect for people, no respect for your trains, fuck the numbers, hit those things left and right! In a real war you dont take sympathy for the enemy and go around his numbers, you bomb everything in sight until you see the white flags come up!
Originally posted by amish son you are full of shit.
you really have no way of knowing and i have no desire of proving it. i know what i do. im also counting writes and outlines, i also do alot of fills. theres more than one way to destroy whole lines! i dont bring enough paint to do fills on every car. but by the time it rolls out ill have something on every single car both sides.

If this is true then you are a true destroyer, but a stupid one at that. You may think it is cool to heat out a spot, but Im sure other writers in your area dont.
Preferably will cracked ass or an experienced freight painter, if you have a lay up that you piece fr8s in at night, if you do small moniker, meanstreak, marker tags on the freights there in the daytime (Without being seen in the act of tagging), will this heat up your lay up?
Nobody cares about you and your stupid band.

I just fill em up with rocks and toss em on top of the train, that way they will fall off the side when the train is movin really fast somewhere far, far away. Do you also chew up yer spent condoms so your girls dad won't find em?
fill em with rocks and toss em!! thats the first thing i've read in this thread that didnt seem like common sence. i like it... but what about the loud thud it makes when it lands? could catch attention of a worker near by. LOL... chew you spent condoms, HA!!!
ill stick to chillen outside the yard in the woods until a fr8 train stops....... they stop alot n they r only 10 ft. away from my chill spot..... its nice..... 3 trains stop every hr. which gives me 20 min. to paint a train...... but sumtimes its not on dis schedule... i guess sumin is fucked wit the system there or sumin.......

sorry, im not an experienced freight painter, but i have been known to take over entire yards with a streak on a sunday afternoon. it really all depends on the yard. this particular spot was a fairly active yard, but i have been spotted by workers in there taking fliks and the most they ever told me is be careful. i decided to streak there because streaaking is nothing. someone has to actually see you to catch you writing. there is no oder, there is no mess left behing and i know a worker that streaks in that yard so seeing the occasional b-e wraper on the ground is not out of the ordainary. now i never painted in this yard cause i see a bull at the office sometimes. and i hate being interrupted when painting, so if i get halfway through a piece and workers come to yank a line i would be pissed. i would say get to know your spot very well ( i had scoped this yard for over 5 years before i decided to wander deep off into the innards) before trying this. know the surrounding neighborhood very well so you can have your story straight. i cant see streaking blowing up a spot unless like i said if someone actually sees you writing on the cars or unless your the type to take streak tags on the engine window or something..

...the best thing to happen to trains since graffiti

You have to watch how many freights that you tag. If you go off tagging a whole line the workers will most likely know that the graffiti happened there because its the same tag on every train. When you do it just try to space out the freights.

yall might get a kick out of this...so i was in a class the other day and this kid starts talkin to me about graffiti. this guy is just special fun. anyhow, he tells me this joke about houston graffiti...this is word-for-word by the way, i wrote it down...

i said "how many?"
