Delbert Laughlin, 15595 S. Ridgeview, Olathe, Kansas 66062, is shown here with his scale model Advance-Rumely steam engine, which he purchased in 1988. Delbert is 73 years old and has been enthused with steam engines ever since he was nine years old, when he started helping his father thresh wheat in the Olathe area.
