Here is a YouTube video of a Doll 512/1 being run on air it would appear. Smallest of the 512 series engines, but certainly not small at all!

Here is the Ventix page for Doll steam engines, and if you scroll about 1/3 of the way down, you'll come to some of the overtype engines including the 512 series.
