I will never forget how the NYC subway cars were full of graffiti, both inside and outside in the 1970's and '80's. Especially on the old IRT and maybe BMT subway cars. Now in the 1990's and maybe the early 2000's, the graffiti guys came out with a new form of it called "scratchitti" where they scratch the graffiti instead of writing it with markers or using spray cans to write it and put it as artwork.

I agree that looking at these videos, seeing pictures, and reading stories from graffiti writers from back in the day New York just had a raw feeling about the graffiti scene. The graffiti was so old school, graffiti just isn't like that anymore. Nothing will ever seem quite like New York did. But that said there is some cities in Europe that are doing a lot of graffiti trains today. Rome probably has the closest thing to New York, at least it did a few years ago, not sure if they have got rid of the graffiti. In 2011 pretty much every single subway car in Rome was covered end to end in graffiti.

Though I was never a fan of this kind of artistic expression, I must admit some of it was quite colorful. I think the graffiti trend was responsible for the various advertising wraps that are seen on buses and subway trains in certain cities. On a recent trip to New York, I saw one of those advertising wrapped trains on the Times Square-Grand Central shuttle.And I remember a 5 car train on the 7 Flushing line with another ad for a local university.

The only reason you don't see these NYC trains tagged anymore is because their coated with a special spray so when you write or spray paint on it, it comes right off.

The NYC Transit Authority was asking for trouble the second that they went from the "redbird" look to the boring blue/grey color scheme back in the early 70's. Not to mention that thanks to the city's constant struggle with their budgets back then, the security inside the train yards were severely compromised. Still, we saw some innovative artwork back then

Man those painted subway cars look awesome. Wish it was still like that. Im from Chicago and always wondered if they used to do graffiti here on the EL trains like they did in NY bacl in the day. No way folks would get away w that now in Chi as anal and strict the city has got over cleaning the city up and maintaining the citys cleanliness. Even though times seemed way harder in NY back then it seemed like the more simpler things is what made it awesome. Like Chicago when all the rich white ppl started takin over neighborhoods that less than a decade ago they wouldn't even be caught dead in are not getting tore down and cleaned up for rich ppl to live in. And all the graffiti artists and original ppl in the neighborhoods were kicked out. On the westside of Chi when I was little in the early 90s there used to be some of the most amazing graffiti murals on the side of the abandoned warehouses youd pass while riding the EL.
