Let me suggest that you have it backwards. The cars are OUTSIDE the fence, not enclosed by it. The fence is designed to control access to the rail yard and warehouse area. And of course, access is from the continuation at the bottom of
the screen, likely off an road that runs by the facility.

Hi,
Additional/followup question ... speaking of those autos. First, I'm kind of surprised
that they are behind a fence ... I'm guessing theft risks. And, more importantly, how
did those cars and the trucks get to this area? I'm guessing that the only route in is
via some access along the water between the ends of the buildings and the sea wall.
