Welcome to the Central Georgia RPM!

The Central Georgia RPM (CGRPM) is a direct continuation of the Savannah RPM that was held in Savannah, GA from 1999 to 2023. Now located in Macon, GA, the CGRPM is a fast growing RPM Meet focused on the modeler and the models.

We take pride in our friendly, relaxed atmosphere where you can sit across the table from another modeler and discuss the models on display. With a limited, handpicked selection of vendors and one clinic per hour, our main focus is the model display room.

Last year was a huge success. We had over 105 attendees and more than 460 excellent models on display.  Let’s make 2026 even bigger!

We hope you can make it to our next Meet that will be held on March 27-28, 2026. Please check out the Location page for more information on where we will be, as well as the Hotels page for lodging information.

Everyone is welcome to attend, no matter your skill level, number of models you bring, or even having finished models to bring! Come as you are, with what you have to show – and join the Central Georgia RPM family!

Thank you for your support of the Central Georgia RPM!

– Ken, Stephen, Paul, Rusty, and Andre

“The Central Georgia RPM is a great way to meet fellow model railroaders, see some amazing models, and exchange information. The clinics provide an opportunity to learn new skills and get information from accomplished model railroaders. No matter if you are a seasoned model railroader or someone new to the hobby, everyone is welcomed in a friendly atmosphere that promotes this great hobby. I highly recommend attending this RPM.”

Thomas Klimoski, Georgia

“…if you weren’t there during the closing weekend of March this year, you surely missed an absolute hoot of an RPM.  This was the inaugural Central Georgia RPM and it didn’t disappoint.”
“…a superb modeling weekend and definitely not to be missed, I’ll certainly be back […] for another dose of Central Georgia RPM”

Tony Sissons, North Carolina

“Friendships, fellowship, great location, interesting clinics to learn more, and, oh yeah, Model Railroading. It doesn’t get any better than that!”

Rusty Evans, Kentucky
