A roller door once used for shunting trains between the paint shop and Carriageworks now stands closed, its corrugated surface bearing the rippling impressions of time and use.
The weathered brick surrounds, with layers of peeling paint and exposed mortar, hint at decades of industrial wear. Overhead, a faded number “6” marks this bay, a designation from an era when trains regularly passed through these doors for maintenance and restoration.
The tracks leading up to the threshold disappear beneath the metal, a quiet reminder of the movement that once defined this space.
This print is a compelling piece for railway enthusiasts, capturing the industrial character and history of Eveleigh Paint Shop.
