CarriageWorks is a multi-venue arts centre in the inner city suburb of Eveleigh. It is housed in the former Eveleigh railway yards which were built between 1880 and 1889. The railway workshops on this site closed in 1988 and the heritage buildings were redeveloped into an art centre dedicated to the development and presentation of contemporary arts. The Carriageworks sign structure has been used to create a unique artwork featuring a series of portraits titled "Thom Roberts Counts Trains". Artist Thom Roberts sees people as trains and trains as people.
