A Brief Intermission: Tagging Trains in Aveiro

I took a quick trip to Aveiro today to pick up some negatives. Since, for a change, I actually had some time before my train departed I took the opportunity to check out the old trains on the Vouga line, the railway line between Aveiro and Agueda.

Some people love tagged trains, and others, including the railway companies, hate it. Personally, I’m well into the former camp. The origin of railway graffiti began with the New York subway artists during the 1970s. Today, tagging trains remains a popular form of expression and railway carriages and freight wagons that carry graffiti are seen by some as rolling museums, carrying works of art across the country.

The carriages of the Agueda regional trains have been a target of taggers for decades, and I always try to get a glimpse of them as I pass through. As I had a few minutes to spare today, I couldn’t resist snapping a few smartphone photos. 

The trains are looking a little worse for wear nowadays, and the taggers have laid so much paint over the windows it’s almost impossible for the passengers to see out, but I can’t deny that the graffiti makes these trains look even more colourful. 

I noticed that over the years the paint had become worn and was being removed in streaks, leaving streaks of different layers of old paint. So this time, I took a closer look at the individual pieces to produce what I hope are some interesting abstracts.

Come on! Let´s drive relaxed in a horse-drawn carriage on a wide wet and reflecting sand beach while golden sunset. Locals here at Parangtritis like this leisure activity, which also can be romantic, if together with our lover.😊

Pour régler le problème des nuits et du repas sur le trajet, l'idée s'est faite de demander un devis à #Carriage.
18 places, plus les chauffeurs, plus douze couchettes, plus la cuisine.
Et une PS3 et une Xbox pour faire passer le temps plus vite aux enfants (36 heures de trajet au mieux, plus au moins une pause de douze heures, plus les temps de passage de frontière).
