I’m not one to condone graffiti whether it be on any structure or object however I do admire some of the artistic work that I see on rail cars. So I came up with the idea for a topic where we could all show the interesting art/graffiti we capture in photos or on video.
M326 CSX Grand Rapids subdivision 02/27/2024 I saw this covered hopper today going through Zeeland Michigan and was able to grab a screenshot from a Railfan Landon video so I will give credit where credit is due. https://youtube.com/@railfanlandon3670? ... yGw7RPMvvt
I am looking forward to this thread. I don't like that vandals paint cars but admit I can appreciate their work.
PatC created a monster, 'cause nobody wants to see Don Simon no more they want AARR I'm chopped liver, well if you want AARR this is what I'll give ya, bad humor mixed with irrelevant info that'll make you roll your eyes quicker than a ~Z~ banhammer...
M326 CSX Grand Rapids subdivision 03/05/2024 I saw this reefer today going through Zeeland Michigan and was able to grab a screenshot from The Bangor WebCam.
The reason this artwork/graffiti stood out to me is because amongst all the colorful imagery there’s a black-and-white image of a crazy ass looking cow/bull wearing a cowboy hat. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXwA5ojW6rY
There is a lot of well done stationary "artwork" in the city of Detroit and elsewhere especially around bridges.
A lot of it is not really be considered graffiti but I thought it was worth mentioning.
I like this one near Milwaukee Junction https://maps.app.goo.gl/3SfC2LKRBVYCUxNPA
M326 CSX Grand Rapids subdivision 03/09/2024 I first noticed this covered hopper today going through Bangor Michigan and I grabbed a screenshot of it from the Bangor WebCam. I was able to grab a shot of it as it passed through Zeeland Michigan as well. Whoever the creator was he or she must have been a Dexter‘s Laboratory fan.
Here are a couple of works of art I saw last weekend on the NS Chicago Line at milepost CD 447.

The last one is not graffiti. That is a cause container that hub group has. If you post that photo on social media and use #causecontainer they’ll donate money to a certain cause (like feeding america, breast cancer awareness, etc)

Makes sense. It looked too "professional" to have been hand painted.
