First Ever Full Length Ad Wrapped Train Runs In NYC

[Dallasdeckard]

@zahrock12 Graffiti is just that, graffiti. It's not pleasant to look at. It's often offensive, trashy or gang nonsense. I'd much rather look at an attractive advertisement than some offensive, childish, gang-ridden graffiti.

@motherfucker21fith no it's because graffiti is vandalism while ads look cool AND generate revenue, which the MTA desperately needs...

Every time I see an ad, I realize suckers are paying for it in the form of higher retail prices.

To be honest, I don't find it very amusing to be wrapping trains, Hong Kong does it all the time, and it becomes kinda annoying. But the graphics look good~

@omutak as noted in the blog post: "You may have seen subway cars wrapped in ads before—the three car Times Square shuttle, for instance. The History Channel and Google both wrapped the Times Square shuttle in 2008 when the MTA began to allow a full wrap of trains. More recently, the Netherlands Board of Tourism wrapped the shuttle in what might be the most elaborate and complicated wrap yet, due to its extensive detailing. But never before has a full length train been wrapped."
