Wow, I didn't expect that long of a response. My thinking on this is that the railroads could take a page from the cities. I know of projects where the major cities (LA, Chitown) set aside public property (a wall, an overpass) for taggers to come in and do their work. I'm saying that the roads could get some good publicity for a community outreach project like this. Afterwards, somebody can look over it, determine if anything needs to be painted over, and send it on its way. And if their worried about the reporting marks getting painted over, they can cover them up with paper and masking tape beforehand. <br /> <br />I do not advocate tagging just for the sake of leaving your mark (gang symbols, lame Chinese and profanity fall into this catergory), but I believe that every artist should be allowed to work in whatever medium they are most comfortable in. For some that just happens to be Krylon on boxcar. While grafitti on private property is officially called vandalism, the worst that happens usually is they pay a fine and have to paint over it. Do not treat these people (mostly kids with sharp minds who have gotten into the wrong crowd) like they just threw a rock through your car window. Last I heard, nobody got killed by a kid with a can of spray paint.
