As a rail fan, I tried to deal with the graffiti artist, but it was very difficult. Back in the 80's we will come up on them while we were tunnel starking (a person who walk in subway tunnels) and they would chase us in the other direction. Since we were on tour with cameras, they probably thought we were spying on them. We were more interested with the train interior and tunnel walls than what was painted on them. It made it hard for us to appreciate our hobby during that period.

The transit authority has been using the graffitti resistant paint on older equipment and the new cars have an anti-graffitti finish. Some of the artwork looked impressive, but when seen from a distance, the trains still looked trashed.

Hey, it STARTED in the rail yard next to DeWitt-C (my school) by Taki138 (he was a year ahead of me and he lived around 138th and Concourse). The trains went out from there to all over and the craze took off. Something like 1970-71.

The New York City Subway Garffiti Strated in the late 1960's. The New York City Subway Cars had Graffiti in the 1970's and the 1980's. People that did Graffiti on the subway cars were arrested before. The NYC MTA did repainted sometimes to get the subway cars to be cleaned. In late 1984 G.O.H began,to rebuilt,repaint,and clean up subway cars. In the Summer 1989 the NYC subway Graffiti died. By 1990 all the NYC subway cars were clean and no more graffiti.

Man you should see if you can track down Taki again, Dyinglikeflies. It would be amazing to get an interview with him or something. I'm sure he should be making some money out of being the guy that kicked it all off..
