Here is a satellite view, City of Wilmington is separated from New Castle by the Norfolk Southern tracks. Norfolk Southern's rail yard is on the New Castle side, and across Pigeon Point Road there is a larger lot for car storage where United Road picks up its loads. There is also a lot on the Port of Wilmington side (east of the oil storage tanks) to store automobiles, presumably for import and export via ocean vessels, but in recent years the port has done only a limited amount of export (of customized vehicles) and no import at all. When I worked in the area almost 20 years ago I often saw the lot with the New Beetles.For what it’s worth before palsapp populated any actual data, the placeholder for my vin said New Castle. Not sure if that means my area of VA is serviced or not but it’s an interesting point
Given the proximity, the VVR showing your car at Port of Wilmington isn't wrong. Even Norfolk Southern's system map calls its terminal Port of Wilmington, despite it being on the New Castle side.
