Toscana Departs Baltimore March 26, 2019

This 199x32m (653x105ft) vehicles carrier was built in 2009 by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries in Kobe, Japan according to Baltic Shipping. She is one of Wallenius Wilhelmsen’s PCTC (Pure Car and Truck Carrier) ships and can carry up to 6,354 cars. While looking for information on this ship I found another ship had also carried this name, a 1924 built Lloyd Triesto Line passenger liner. I also found an interesting tidbit about how Wallenius Wilhelmsen names their ships though it is a bit out of date since it doesn’t talk about some of the other ships I have seen plus their newer paint scheme.
In the below video you can see her passing the inbound Wallenius Wilhemsen vehicles carrier Boheme as she heads out of Baltimore, Maryland in nice evening lighting. For best results watch in FULL SCREEN. You may need to watch for 20+ seconds before full resolution kicks in.

In addition to the Boheme briefly seen above I also saw the container ship MSC Oriane come to Baltimore on this day.
