Rupert Jordan had always been interested in steam power. In 1954 Chuck Raymond and LeRoy Levine bought a steam engine which was in the DeKalb Centennial Parade in 1956.This created interest among steam buffs who got together and compiled a list of people they thought would be interested in forming a club. They advised them of a planned meeting for the middle of February.
