People and animals converged from all over NSW and beyond to get to the Sydney Royal Easter Show. Bob Arnold was an agricultural journalist and worked with RAS public relations in the 1950s. He remembered how getting to the old Showground at Moore Park particularly with livestock, could be quite a lengthy business (edited extract from an interview with Richard Raxworthy in 1996).
