Having graffiti writers draw on NYC subway maps isn’t all that original and has been done countless times, all of which we’ve dutifully covered, but there’s still something appealing about them. So, here’s some of the latest additions by storied bombers to Dirty Pilot’s ‘Map Quest’ exhibit. They’re almost guaranteed to turn a profit.

Nothing delights us more then recieving brand spanking new flicks of freight trains painted by the likes of EZO, NAVY, and ZEPHYR. Ever since the subways were buffed and taken out of service the minute aerosol hit their surfaces, allot of ‘writers’ took to the freight trains to satisfy their itch. Since we don’t want to blow up spots, let’s just say these were done in the local tri-state area. Its always been said that actions (and photos) speak louder then words so we present some of the trio’s most recent destruction after the jump.
