In 1001 nights time (about three years) the campaign for the 2012 Olympics will be in full swing.Over recent years London councils have begun to paint over track side graffiti with a view to have completely eliminated most of the eyesore by the time the games begin. This campaign is thought to intensify over the next few years pushing a zero tolerance approach to the railway sidings not just painting over everything once, but returning to paint over again and again walls which become re vandalised.

This horrible brown colored paint (hence the brown colour for the print) has wiped out pieces and walls which have never been painted over before.Traveling far out on overground sections of the tube and british rail networks alike taking out everything in view. The result is that our history as we know it is being eliminated. Pieces that have been a familiar part of the scenery for years, old names which have since retired and in some cases even died and Pieces which have been left for years out of respect by other writers now faded and disappearing into the moss covered brickwork are being mindlessly eradicated.

Stop the buff

Save our history
