OK, now that we've got that cleared up -

I think you're ready to move up to a better-quality box car.  The grafitti "tagging" is very good, but kind of wasted on that old Tyco/Mantua with truck-mounted horn-hooks.  Of course, if you just used old cars to practice on, that's a good system, too.

Or, maybe you should weather the car before you tag it.

It takes an iron man to play with a toy iron horse.

Graffiti hardly ever covers the whole side of the car. It usually goes no higher than what the artist vandal can reach from standing on the ground.
