Now in the 1990's and maybe the early 2000's, the graffiti guys came out with a new form of it called "scratchitti" where they scratch the graffiti instead of writing it with markers or using spray cans to write it and put it as artwork.

I agree that looking at these videos, seeing pictures, and reading stories from graffiti writers from back in the day New York just had a raw feeling about the graffiti scene. The graffiti was so old school, graffiti just isn't like that anymore. Nothing will ever seem quite like New York did. But that said there is some cities in Europe that are doing a lot of graffiti trains today. Rome probably has the closest thing to New York, at least it did a few years ago, not sure if they have got rid of the graffiti. In 2011 pretty much every single subway car in Rome was covered end to end in graffiti.

Though I was never a fan of this kind of artistic expression, I must admit some of it was quite colorful. I think the graffiti trend was responsible for the various advertising wraps that are seen on buses and subway trains in certain cities. On a recent trip to New York, I saw one of those advertising wrapped trains on the Times Square-Grand Central shuttle.And I remember a 5 car train on the 7 Flushing line with another ad for a local university.

The only reason you don't see these NYC trains tagged anymore is because their coated with a special spray so when you write or spray paint on it, it comes right off.

The NYC Transit Authority was asking for trouble the second that they went from the "redbird" look to the boring blue/grey color scheme back in the early 70's. Not to mention that thanks to the city's constant struggle with their budgets back then, the security inside the train yards were severely compromised. Still, we saw some innovative artwork back then

Man those painted subway cars look awesome. Wish it was still like that. Im from Chicago and always wondered if they used to do graffiti here on the EL trains like they did in NY bacl in the day. No way folks would get away w that now in Chi as anal and strict the city has got over cleaning the city up and maintaining the citys cleanliness. Even though times seemed way harder in NY back then it seemed like the more simpler things is what made it awesome. Like Chicago when all the rich white ppl started takin over neighborhoods that less than a decade ago they wouldn't even be caught dead in are not getting tore down and cleaned up for rich ppl to live in. And all the graffiti artists and original ppl in the neighborhoods were kicked out. On the westside of Chi when I was little in the early 90s there used to be some of the most amazing graffiti murals on the side of the abandoned warehouses youd pass while riding the EL.

I love the music at the start
The only reason you don't see these NYC trains tagged anymore is because their coated with a special spray so when you write or spray paint on it, it comes right off. Try it as you wait for the train to stop at your local train station although I will advise you there are consequences towards everything you do! Lml

Not true, trains are still bombed in NY to this day. The MTA just has a strict policy on not letting clean trains go into service. Google clean train movement. Please don’t spread this uninformed shit again

They are not coated because once its vandalized it goes out of service and does extensive maintenince and the NTT's look bad with graffiti but it will look good, only if the MTA lets people graffiti a 10 car train just for art.

I Remember most of the boricuas graffiting all those trains even drawing our Puerto Rican Flag in any train , for me that was the sign , that who we represent in 1 of 5 elements of Hip Hop Crew , that was our artistic sign in the world of Hip Hop !
KING DUSTER
The NYC Transit Authority was asking for trouble the second that they went from the "redbird" look to the boring blue/grey color scheme back in the early 70's. Not to mention that thanks to the city's constant struggle with their budgets back then, the security inside the train yards were severely compromised. Still, we saw some innovative artwork back then

miss those days best time ever playing and bombing all trains subway cars need graffiti they were fun to see
Wonderful, nyc looking too street.
What a great throwback. 1980’s New York subway art, gritty dark but full of character. Unlike today where so many cities have become so boring and bland.
loved them days fun fun fun

Man those painted subway cars look awesome. Wish it was still like that. Im from Chicago and always wondered if they used to do graffiti here on the EL trains like they did in NY bacl in the day. No way folks would get away w that now in Chi as anal and strict the city has got over cleaning the city up and maintaining the citys cleanliness. Even though times seemed way harder in NY back then it seemed like the more simpler things is what made it awesome. Like Chicago when all the rich white ppl started takin over neighborhoods that less than a decade ago they wouldn't even be caught dead in are not getting tore down and cleaned up for rich ppl to live in. And all the graffiti artists and original ppl in the neighborhoods were kicked out. On the westside of Chi when I was little in the early 90s there used to be some of the most amazing graffiti murals on the side of the abandoned warehouses youd pass while riding the EL.

People did and still do paint trains in Chicago. But they don't let them ride. I think in the 80s you could get em to ride a little. But I wasn't there. Chicago was killed in the 90s. It was a sight to see.
Is there a remastered version of style wars?
I only watch the first seconds... the music is great
unbelievable

The look actually looked awesome and I also wish that the trains were still like back in 70s, 80s and 90s but now it's just clean trains with boring looks even though it's just clean and actually graffiti was popular back in those times and there were was a lot of vands out there with their own style but now graffiti is just dead
Poverty and a new craze= this.
This was the time when the 8 train was alive
Before they were so colorful and unique
Back when getting up was easier

Good old days
Nice.
No wonder they looked like that in the movie Warriors
@GWprojects It's called Style Wars. Best graffiti movie ever in my opinion.
Art at it's finest
How do I get usage rights for this footage? I’m an indie filmmaker
Quik was my favorite. He still has a piece by the deagan
ROCK IN IT ITS THE SONG.. WITH KRAFTWERK BEATS

Did they even remove the graffiti pieces from the train? And how fast?

I like the way they play Wagner at the end.
Song at the beginning?
@beenie3...no...their graffitti proof. If you piece on them, they have a special kind of cleaning solution that will wash it right off.
I second that notion, tommybass40! As a native NYer born and raised, I couldn't agree more...!!! New York has become DULL & DEAD.
What is the beginning music???

I can almost feel the visceral thril and the reason why it's the subway trains and not the walls for the reason for graffiti. I never could feel any motivation for walls.

NYC today is a shit hole
Every subway car was scribbled up; some were spray painted from top to bottom, and from end to end. It was too much for me to see.
