Nice collection of vehicles Paul....what are the last 2 trucks in the Heavy column? The first reminds me of a MB 4500, not sure about the last one.

 

[Lee Drennen]

Another nice one Paul thanks for sharing

 

[JayCee]

Excellent as usual, Paul.
John.

Thanks guys.
Rick, they are both the same. Two Brekina B4500s from your surplus you sold me some time back.

 

[Mini Me]

Good to see you put them to use!

 

[Jim R]

Excellent Paul, you've done it once again

 

[adt70hk]

Yet again great work! Very well done.

Thank you all.
I missed calling out the Brekina Borgwards & the Arsenal 3ton truck & 3ton trailer.

Hi Paul, I just got three of those Einheits Diesels for a future build.......nice to see some of the earlier stuff coming out in styrene kits....much easier to work with than the dreaded resin or funky white metal. Is the three ton trailer an ADP model, or did you bash it up using an old load bed?

 

[minitnkr]

Might have been an ADP Rick, I just changed the tires.

That's just brilliant and imaginative, if I tried something like that I would be getting my telegram from the monarch for reaching a century before being halfway through.

Awesome work Paul

 

[minitnkr]

Thank you gentlemen.

Wow Paul, you are getting some good use out of the Red Ball Highway here!!! I love the convoy and the different vehicles in it. I really love the Kettenkraftrad doing the broad slide on the pavement. I take it the last 8 ton is towing a FlaK 41 and the 2 in the middle, towing FlaK 36/37s, but what is the first 8 ton towing? It looks to me to be a 8.8 PaK 43 with that type of shield on it. could never be elevated enough for FlaK use...Just wondering my friend...Hope all is well in downtown Ohio too...

Prost
Allen

Paul,
Love these scenes that you put together, always full of detail.

 

[minitnkr]

Allen, sharp eye bro. Yes, the remaining Heavy Flak Battery elements are heading to a new mission backstopping a PAK front, thus the reinforcing PAK43 attached.

Thanks Paul, working some bridging elements next.
