ALSTOM Says Hi Again

 
 
In September we attended the ALSTOM family day and met up with my teamleader and his girlfriend, see here, if you like.
 
He properly showed us around, also inside the "hidden" places, where we found murals, or... graffitis, rather - but reckon they count as art, too?
 

 ALSTOM I work for will do the job and make them "pretty" again - maybe ready for real murals!
 
Please cross fingers and toes we match the timeline for the Frankfurt-project, other I might lose my job. And the very best team ever.

Yes, old boy, they sure will!

I think it's artful rather than art. But it's well done. I couldn't make such letters

Iris Flavia said...

Me, neither! I think the rusty trains help it being art.

Cathy said...

Some of the graffiti I see could be classed as art - trouble is a lot of it is just scrawl. The youngsters (well most of them are) are able to get the perspective just right

Iris Flavia said...

I agree, I think the art is the rust on the trains, kinda!

Nancy Chan said...

Some are art, some are graffiti. I find it hard to make out the letterings.

Iris Flavia said...

Me, also, but the rust was too cool not to share!
Aren´t they charmy, those old trains?

Tom said...

...here train cars are moving graffiti galleries.

Sami said...

Those trains must be quite old to be rusted. I like the lettering although I can't figure out what it says.
Good luck with the project timeline, hope it all goes well Iris.
Thanks for participating in Monday Murals.

Iris Flavia said...

Tom, here it´s actually not allowed. Which I find sad, at least real mural-wise!

Sami, thank you, it looks rather dark with the timeline.
Positive thinking, right!

No idea, either, what the lettering means...

Thank you!

Art is in the eye of the beholder.

Iris Flavia said...

True words!

Hidden places are the best, you can find this not seen before.

When you see freight trains going by here almost every car has graffiti on it. They get cleaned and then are marked again almost immediately.

Bleubeard and Elizabeth said...

It's definitely graffiti, and I have never understood it. Pretty colors, though.

I hope you do meet the deadline. Gigi hawaii

River said...

I have my fingers crossed for meeting the deadline. I think you can all together do it.

I see lots of graffiti on old trains here. It's always interesting that they choose them!
