I won this engine in an auction many, many years ago. It has never been properly identified, although someone told me they thought it may be a Bischoff of Dresden.
Since a few of you have referenced Bischoff catalogs, I wonder if you could look to see if any thing similar pops up.
For reference, the engine itself is roughly 12" long with a 6" flywheel. The boiler is 24" from the base board to the top of the stack. It has a single fire tube up the middle and I do not have a burner that fits. The original color is brown like many Bischoffs. I could find no evidence of the wbd markings I have seen on other Bischoffs.

The Crosshead supporting the cylinder and the tiny Valve chest are fairly distinctive. The crank supports are very Bischoff design.
There was a cylinder lubricator mounted on the cylinder but it was broke off (but included, I found it in the boiler fire box). There was no piping from the boiler to the engine.
Any identification would be appreciated.
Also, Any Bischoff catalogs available as a download or PDF file?
