It will take place from November 7 to 9, 2003, in Petersberg-Steinau, located on the outskirts of Fulda, Hesse, and not too far from Frankfurt/Main in central Germany. We invite model builders and collectors alike, whether they are club members or just interested in 1/87th scale vehicles, and whatever their particular field of interest in H0 scale models may be.
