Somewhere in North Africa, Rommel coordinates his offensive. Once the DAK have their needed provisions, the small uncharted desert town will be added to their maps as an outpost to supply vehicles with petrol and water.

One of their smallest vehicles of the fleet is this little VW Bug; better load lots of extra water for these Beatles are known to overheat in the hot arid desert.

Thanks Larry; always appreciate your nice feedback.

Here's another shot of the little desert village. I seem to use this same layout time-and-time again.

Guess it's better than walking, but only just in that bone shaker. Rob a great result for this desert dio. Robin.

Just a couple of technical points .......,

the vehicle is a BEETLE ... not a BEATLE who is one of 4 people (John, Paul, George or Ringo) from Liverpool who made music in the 1960's.

Also the BEETLE didn't get overheated due to lack of water, because the engine is AIR COOLED !!!! The water is for the troops .... :)

I should know as I owned a couple of them in the 1970's

Love the diorama, great setup ..

John
