25 ET420 “Plochi” – Limited German Graffiti Train Art Board on Birch Wood
THE ET420 “PLOCHI” ON BIRCH WOOD – LIMITED TO ONLY 25 PIECES
“25 ET420” is the special final design in the Chromatica City Series. This classic German suburban train is closely connected to the country’s early graffiti and style-writing history and is affectionately known within the scene as the “Plochi”.
As graffiti spread across Germany, the ET420 became a familiar sight on several major urban railway networks. Its history is particularly closely connected to Stuttgart and the Plochingen depot. Its distinctive shape, large side panels and decades of service made it a genuine icon of German train and graffiti culture.
The detailed ET420 graffiti train template is permanently laser-engraved onto a 3 mm birch wood board in A4 landscape format. Display the classic “Plochi” as an authentic urban art collectible or customise it with acrylic markers, colours, lettering and your own graffiti style.
A GERMAN GRAFFITI ICON
The ET420 is more than a historic suburban train. For several generations of writers, it formed part of their surroundings, memories and creative history.
The train became particularly important within Stuttgart’s local graffiti culture. Its connection to Plochingen and its special status among German writers earned it the affectionate scene nickname “Plochi”.
As design number 25, this classic completes the international journey of the Chromatica City Series with a tribute to an important chapter of German subway and graffiti history.

PLEASE NOTE: NATURAL MATERIAL

These natural variations are not defects. They make every board a unique piece within the individually numbered edition.
