>People like them fine as they are. Young people at least. As for the older people, they will give their place to younger people sooner or later. I doubt that.

I doubt that. At least I am a young German and I prefer my trains to be clean. And I'm absolutely certain most young people here think the same way.
There is graffiti that I enjoy, but the majority of it doesn't exactly improve the looks of things.
Also, there is a slight problem with people feeling insecure when using public transportation due to repeated incidents where people were beaten up or stabbed in trains. Having graffiti all over the place makes especially older people less likely to use public transportation and therefore reduces the income.

Because the young Germans I've talked to in Mitte sure didn't think that way. >Also, there is a slight problem with people feeling insecure when using public transportation due to repeated incidents where people were beaten up or stabbed in trains. That's orthogonal. >Having graffiti all over the place makes especially older people less likely to use public transportation and therefore reduces the income. Huh? How is that conclusion reached? I hope not with the "broken window" theory -- there are graffiti in affluent and well maintained city districts too.
- reportingsjr 13y agosquareville? Let's not act like we are five years old and calling each other names. That makes for a terrible environment. Remember that your opinion isn't The One and that everybody has different likes. I agree that graffiti on trains normally looks terrible, but in other places graffiti can be very interesting.
