    Deplorable. I wonder whether the BBC was wise to publish photos of the "tags" - is the publicity not one reason the vandals do it? I also wonder whether "urban explorers" who publish photos and videos of "abandoned train carriages" on social media also encourage this kind of behaviour. The youths who break in probably think they're Indiana Jones.
