Everyone: The recent Belgian train crash got me to thinking about European graffiti noticing the graffiti on some of the equipment.
I have noticed that transit systems there have some noticeable graffiti in pictures I have seen and some commuter and intercity systems have graffiti that can be noted.
The question I have is how much graffiti has taken influence in European transport systems and other places around the World if anyone does know?
What are penalties for those caught applying graffiti to rail vehicles in Europe and elsewhere if anyone knows?
I recall that graffiti took off in North America after the hip-hop culture took hold in the 80s and 90s following also movies that glorified the graffiti culture like "Wild Style" were released.
What was a regional and illegal trend (Philadelphia-where modern graffiti was born and soon afterwards New York City in the early-mid 70s era) later took off world-wide.
When did rail systems overseas first encountered graffiti if anyone knows? The term "American Graffiti" can definitely be applied here!
