Neat....did it appear to have been professionally done, or, was that some truly artistic graffiti?

no, someone actually graffitied it...took up the whole car side! Would be interesting to know how they did it and how long it took them

It would, indeed...we just came back from a trip to Disneyworld,and traveled there (from Ohio) on Amtrak....definitely better than any of the graffiti we saw on our trip! :-D

The railway authorities really need to start catching some of these people in the act!
And then offer them jobs. Graffiti of that quality is rare, and is far more interesting than solid brown/grey/green/etc. I dare say it makes trains more visible too, especially in fading light.

Sweet! Would you mind sharing this one with the community e.g. on RailworksAmerica.com for download? It looks great and I think that more ppl want to enjoy some 'dirty' wagons in RW.

I remember a post up here where someone said "I showed RW to a friend and he liked very much what he saw, but one thing baffled him: everything is so clean".
