Freight train graffiti in American is often overlooked as the little cousin of the original Subway movement, but it has it’s own cultures and traditions that have spread country-wide. Tales From the Rails is a documentary of sorts that was shot over an eight year period from 1992 by Monty Nielsen, documenting freight graffiti from the East to West coasts. Shot on Super 8 and 35mm stills, the film is a labour of love that captures the climate of the time. Featuring interviews and bombing missions, as well as flicks of hundreds of freight pieces, it’s a pretty amazing snapshot of the movement.
