BOMBS AWAY! – ELKAMINO

The Virginia Gentleman, ELKAMINO – DOS:

Growing up in the shadow of one of the oldest lines in the country, I’ve been around trains my whole life. As a kid, I remember counting the endless coal cars going by the lake in my neighborhood. I still look at them the same way. Watching, walking, riding, painting and streaking freight trains. It becomes a way of life.

BOMBS AWAY! – BIG5 & WINK

The Los Angeles Dream Team. Big5 & Wink – BA, FU, FGS:

BIG5: Born and raised in Los Angeles CA, BIG5 has been a part of the Los Angleles graffiti scene for many years. He started writing graffiti in 1984 and painted his first boxcar in 1992. His work has been featured in countless graffiti and tattoo magazines. You can find his trains published in books, such as, The History of Freight Train Graffiti and Southern Pacific Forever, Volumes 1,3,4,7,8. His work has been featured in art shows in San Fransisco CA, Baltimore MD, Atlanta GA, and Bakersfield CA. In 2006, BIG5 opened his own tattoo shop in Los Angeles called UNION ELECTRIC TATTOO. BIG5 and his painting partner and wife, WINK, collaborate on projects. Often referred to as “Bonnie and Clyde,” this duo represents the graffiti crews FU, BA, FGS. They enjoy cross-country travel and painting.

WINK: This hard-core female has been putting it down on freight trains since 1997. Raised in Los Angeles and engulfed in the hip-hop subculture, it was only natural for her to pick up this gritty art form. WINK met BIG5 in 97, where they had their first date in the “Garden Spot” train yard. After that day she was hooked. Hundreds of trains carry her moniker in the U.S. Her work has been featured in many graffiti magazines and can be found in books such as Southern Pacific Forever, Volumes 4,7,8. Her paintings have been in art shows in California, Atlanta and Baltimore. In 2008 she started a street wear clothing line for girls called Mrs. Five Clothing. WINK’s signature clothing line can be found in hot spots all over Los Angeles and San Francisco.

BOMBS AWAY! – ENUE

Next up, my dude with the quick wit and fast hand. ENUE – COD, X-MEN, NSF… from NYC:

ENUE started writing graffiti in the 90′s as a direct result of being exposed to toxic fumes along the Chemical Coast region of New Jersey.
As a younger graffiti writer, he embraced the idea that the American freight rail system was the last option for running trains in the USA and
became very interested in the freight writing culture. After a 6 year hiatus, ENUE returned to graffiti in 2003 and is constantly striving to 
perfect his craft. ENUE is a representative of the Ironlak Writer’s Team and has painted in a number of major cities throughout the US/Canada and 
also Taiwan.
