Saw 2008’s coming off the boat TODAY! Portland, OR
Saw 2008’s coming off the boat TODAY! Portland, OR
Man sorry guys the camera was back at the shop. Just happened to be in the area where they unload the Toyotas off the boats. I watched as two new colors came off. They were not putting them in their over load lot near the public (where I got the good photos last year when they first arrived in the US as see on Ih8mud) so I was a good ¼ mile away looking down hill. BUT I defiantly saw two new colors:
Brick Red (dark but not like the black cherries)
Sand beige!
No sun roofs that I could see.
Can you say Telephoto lens…….. Sun rise is at what time? Photos to come.
UPDATE! PHOTOS!
UPDATE:
Here is the view from yesterday. (I saw a ship there but maybe it was not unloading?)
Sign welcoming anyone that wants to walk close to the yards. All photos actually were taken from public property, I never crossed any of the “secure” areas with out permission. We like our relation ship with Toyota!

They must have come off yesterday, because there was no Toyota ship today. I could have worked that ship, but I chose a different job instead. Good spot, sorry I didn't work the ship and take some pictures for you guys.
There is another ship working tomorrow, cars/trucks should start coming off the ship at about 8:30 AM. Doubtful that any will be parked in the upper lot, you will be able to see them from the St Johns bridge or other locations if you want to walk the railroad tracks. And no, I won't be working that ship either.

Thanks for keeping an eye out. Looking forward to seeing pics when you get them.
