train wreck in the forest

This train wreck occurred in 1956 when some boxcars derailed outside of Whistler, Canada after some loaded lumber fell out and blocked the line. Workers dragged the remains and dumped them in the forest. This one just one boxcar out of many and they all had graffiti.

"Forest Art"! Somehow it just feels out of place and maybe a bit of a cop out for the authorities all that time ago.... :)
