The 2008 National O Scale Convention will be held at the DCU Center
in Worcester Massachusetts. The DCU center will provide us with over
50,000 square feet of exhibition space. In this large area we plan to have
a large amount of dealer tables, wide isle spacing and many operating
layouts including the Southern New England Modular Layout that
measures 27’ x 81’. The DCU Center is located in downtown Worcester
about 2 blocks from the newly renovated Union Station. Click on the
Union Station link to see more about the station. One of the Providence
and Worcester mainlines runs across the street from the front of the DCU
Center. An all-day rail-fan trip is in the planning for convention goers on
Wednesday 7/23/08.
