Good - they actually made it. That took up far too much of our time at
work.

But look at the graffiti on them. John's link shows them on September
10. This link:

shows them being hoisted up, on August 20, graffiti free.

Obviously the people running the project were too stupid to put any
security up there with them.

What is it about tube trains that attracts graffiti, even when they are no
longer functioning as trains and have become sculptures? Why don't the
graffitijits attack other sculptures and monuments?

How do you know that's not part of the art installation ?

- It's not an "art installation"
- Can't imagine LUL giving away tube stock knowing they would be
grafittied (possibly encouraging further grafitti on working stock)
- Can't imagine the local council and residents approving planning
permission for a grafitti mess.
