Sorry, I only have 1898 and 1906 Bing (re-print) catalogs and this has the later Bing Werke trademark. I do have a later catalog on the way (hopefully early next week)... If it hasn't been ID'd by then, maybe I will find it in there...

Thanks Nick !
I have a repro 1930 Bing catalog, but it only shows a few of the better engines and nothing near as small as mine.

Seller's being a little slow with shipping out my book, fingers crossed it has lots of models in it... will keep you updated when it arrives...

Ok, so earlier BW logo with smaller b indicates 1919, 1920. The B was enlarged in '20. I have not found a ref # that jives yet, but still looking. Perhaps a later 130/#, that I don't have a ref for? But, my info has 130/ as fitted with whistle if that size...
