In London on the tube. They were tagging a train when security spotted them and they ran away..... into the path of a train! 
Was just on the news.

I was the first to congratulate Merseyside Tunnel Police for making a car crash, killing its joyriding occupants. I just don't think painting a train should attract the same penalties.

some people who who are really into it consider it an art, and there are places which you can do graffiti freely.

I don't care about people doing it on canvas or areas that are made for it, but even if it is really COOL, its still fucking digraceful and absolutely stupid!
If your going to fuck about on tracks like that then you have it coming really don't you.

Would it be thought of any differently by people saying its ok if it was say a motorway underpass they were tagging & it was your car they run infront of???
Playing on train tracks is playing with your life.....primary school kids even know this!!

well if sure most of the users on here would want to run them down if their car had been tagged with "BIGLETS 07" or whatever.
At the end of the day were fucking paying for it to be removed!
