Graffiti can be art. Perhaps it's subjective as to when it becomes art*, but unwanted spraying over windows, etc, is vandalism.

A Class 701 that SWT▸ (South West Trains) don't want, SE Trains have taken some but I think they are finding it cheaper to refurb 465/6's

I think you're getting 701s and 707s mixed up, as well as SWT and SWR» (South Western Railway - about).  Wink

Mind you, whether SWR really want 701s now is open to debate given the time taken to introduce them and the reduction in the core SWR commuter market since they were ordered.
