Format:Paperback
If you are interested in modelling the recent era, or have an interest in lettering design in general, this book is the one for you. It is 350 pages of colour photos of the graffiti applied to freight cars with probably at least 1000 photos. Tagging and graffiti isn't something that I condone, but some of these people are, without doubt, "Artists"(with a capital A). Highly recommended.

Best book since Subway Art
1 May 2006
Format:Paperback
This is a comprehensive look at the freight train graffiti movement in the Americas. It's a huge book that includes more than a hundred of the most influential writers in the scene. From the Pre and Sento cover to the present day, this book covers the history from end to end and in full color. Short passages explain who's who and what's what. It is amazing. You'd happily pay $50 for it, but luckily you don't have to. It's a must-have for any rail graffiti enthusiast.

Modelers Beware!
29 Nov 2007
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Great book, tons of color shots and information. Great reference for model railroaders looking to add a present-day feel to their trains. Beware! This book will inspire you to tag your own stuff.

Quintessential book on freight train graffiti
6 May 2006
Format:Paperback
Not since Breakin' 2, Electric Boogaloo, has a vehicle of popular culture captured the true essence of the graffiti artist. Some may argue that Turk 182 holds high honors in this catagory, but true enthusiasts know Bob Clark to be a hack.
Before this book you would have had to quit your job, bought a year's worth of Boone's Farm wine, and hung a sack from a stick to see this level of train graffiti. Jack Kerouac would be proud.
