Hey Babies!

Time for more Dope Shit on Trains!

Hold onto your Sacred Envelope, this is gonna be Turkey With Mayonnaise for all you lovely Pumpkins in your Sunday-Go-To-Meetin' Attire.

Fresh Train Snaks include: PHSYK at right, signed BEAST & "Back Home".

We're including the Best and the Bravest Tags on Canadian Trains, of course, for our audience of Selected Viewers and Venerable Guests.  Frankly, I don't know if you're a Dog Watching TV or a Lesbian on Weight-Control, but you're all welcome in Sez1's Living Room.  Just don't spit your bubble gum in the carpet.

This second one is pleasant, but unreadable, due to nervous, high-strung taggers and lack of Color Wheel Balance. We're thinkin' here: too much coffee, not enough tea. Advised is sage and timely intervention from the Color Psychology People, who say this:

This logic is only a more technical version of the old idea that complementary colors are polar opposites. And old esthetic theories jumped to the conclusion that these color pairings created the strongest visual tensions and, if properly balanced, the most satisfying visual harmonies in color designs.

Enough of this crap!

Onward to Better and more technical things. 

We salute the Lone Tagger: SRYS for his one-man-up-man-ship on this long and lonely Canadian Rail System.

Graffiti can be fun, but it can be lonely.

No one walks the walk with you when you leave your print for posterity.  You're all alone.  You'll probably stay that way too, because face it: what girl wants to marry a neurotic, paint-smeared anarchist who chews Sunflower seeds and wears a backwards ballcap?

Think about it.  It's sobering.

RECS is our next online Guest for TalkShow Tunes.  "It's Been A While" he says in a 1999 throw-up that's also hit by TVP. Nice.  Bold.  Good Hospital-Green themes.  Web Designers and Garment Workers could learn a lot from you, if you have a weekend off and want to do a workshop.  Jeez.  I'd sign up.

Next one is kinda pretty.

Signed by PRO VANDALS and others less fortunate. Looks circa 1999 like RECS work above.  Has that faded blue jeans Bobby McGee kinda mid-western sentiment to it. Graffiti can be so many things, when you're waiting for the laundry to dry.

 

More of the same on the left.  AABA, me-thinks, but then Me could be wrong, because Me has been wrong before.

We like the distinctive stylings of these recent locomotives; they are all pleasing to the eyes and impart a lightness and disneyland-type feel to the rusty boxcars.

If only school gymnasiums were as bright and cheery, we'd probably turn out better hockey players.

Last one in the series.  Thanks and good night.  Now, on to Real Trouble.

The LETTER "H". Floating in the soft daylight, suspended eerily between the wheels and Crushing Industry of the Big Skidding Box.

that's as much as we are allowed to say right now.

Tomorrow, there will be more.

We leave you with the "Dove Of War", a slightly lame, but effective rendition of Bird Territory, aka Native Algonquin tradtitional art.  Nice eh?

 

Canada scores once again with Shark's Teeth for Breakfast, or "Blades of Wheatgrass for Dinner". 

No Problem.

It's all allowed in Canada, home of the Brave, Haters of Ignorant Shit like Geroge W Bush.  Get it?  We're not goin' along with your gutless war games, Yankee RedNecks. Ours is a place of Peace & Solitude.  Dig?

 

And finally > the Finishing Four.

Looks like Budget Brake And Muffler to me.  But it's actually BUKET. Yeah?

 

JES and BE2 surrender their simple but glorious stars and stripes to the side of Illinois Central.

Kinda kinky and kinda Patriotic, me-thinks.

yankee boys?

Could do with a little Emily Karr color Wheel Logic, but we'll shut up and let the Fleas Dance on the Dogs.

Okay?

 

 

Doesn't mean a thing to me, but the sloppy black, white & blue letters remind me of science books in grade 10.

Makes you want to Listen to ABBA while watching old World War II movies.  No?

 

This piece was such a mess, I photographed it out of sheer pity for all the lost animals in the SPCA.  If this doesn't make you want to donate to the Tiny Timmy Christmas Fund, you're a fukin' creep.

 

MOZO tells it like it is:

"Freight Trains Suck The Life Out Of You..."

Nicely done piece from 2005, signed by Judas.
