    What does a room full of passionate model railroaders sound like? That's what we were in Australia to capture during the inaugural Sydney RPM. We sat down with attendees, vendors, clinicians and content creators to get their take on this event and the state of model railroading in Australia, and how this event has intertwined both North American and Australian prototype modelers from eastern Australia and beyond. In part one, we talk to Justin Mitchell, Will James, Steven Pracey, Gary Rose, and Steve Pettit.
