Police allege the two men communicated with each other online and investigators were looking into whether they were part of a broader network.
A joint Queensland and federal police investigation led to detectives raiding residences at Cunnamulla, almost 800 kilometres west of Brisbane, and Geham, in the Toowoomba region.
It will be alleged officers found a computer and other electronic devices which contained child exploitation material during the Cunnamulla search.
A 65-year-old local man was charged with three counts of grooming a child under 16 and possessing child exploitation material. He was due to appear in the Cunnamulla Magistrates Court on Monday.
Meanwhile, police allege officers found similar material at the Geham address. A 54-year-old local man was charged with two counts of possession of child exploitation material. He was due to appear in the Toowoomba Magistrates Court on March 12.
