The largest (that I am aware of) in the Kismet range of pumps by William Turner & Bro LTD of Sheffield England.

These are photos from an old air compressor we have sitting in our back yard. My husbands work decided to get rid of it because it has a leak. He decided to take it home instead to tinker with. On of these days he will get to it ...
The largest (that I am aware of) in the Kismet range of pumps by William Turner & Bro LTD of Sheffield England.
The one has been restored with considerable effort!
This shed is in a better state of repair than some of the others, in that it still (sort of) has a roof.
This one was not a planned purchase but with 93% sale price I got it. It will be my spare compressor (I already have three). It was a steal indeed!

Product Details
This compressor is perfect for the occasional and professional artist doing general airbrush applications. It’s powerful, compact, reliable and quiet.
Iwata Studio Series compressors are powerful, compact and quiet. With oil-less piston motors, they are low maintenance and affordably priced.
Built with Iwata’s Smart Technology, it automatically turns the compressor on when you press your airbrush trigger, providing instant air at the pressure you have set it, and turns the compressor off again when the airbrush is not in use.
Like all Iwata Studio Series compressors, the Smart Jet Pro comes complete with an airhose and adapters so it can hook up to any brand of airbrush.
Applications:
The smaller Smart Jet Pro’s new features:
Smaller size compressor case: L 25.7 x W 14 x H 24.1 cm (approx. excluding handle and fittings)
Lighter Weight: 5.6kg
Access holes in compressor case allow users to more easily change the intake filters without having to remove the case adding to ease of maintenance.
Relocated air outlet
New style of filter/regulator (the same as the Smart Jet Plus Handle-Tank compressor)
Updates to case label and carton artwork.
Revised included accessories are more beneficial to the end user now that replacement filters has been added
The Smart Jet Pro features:
Low maintenance, oil-less single piston air compressor
Quiet running 1/8 HP induction motor
Air flow: 0.64 CFM (12 lpm) at open flow
Working pressure from 0 psi to 35 psi
Smart Technology automatic switching reduces running time and motor wear (30 psi on / 50 psi off)
Protective outer case
Cooling hose and moisture filter inside case, which remove the moisture and prevent pulsing
Mounted pressure gauge
Air regulator for precise air pressure adjustment
Comes with a 3 metre (10’) vinyl hose
One 1/4 BSP outlet
Built in airbrush holder
On/off switch
Voltage: 220–240V 50Hz
Noise level: 50 decibels
Duty cycle: 60 minutes continuous use. Please allow the motor to rest for at least 20 minutes after each cycle of continuous use.

Why it works.
Steam in the top, compressed air out of the bottom. Dual action piston on top cycles automatically with a "Shortend Stroke" valve (that's the small rod in the center) to drive the main rod that compresses atmospheric air, intake from a filter, to a pressure vessel (tank) to maintain the brake line pressure. If the line is dumped, or slowly released, springs on each car in the train no longer hold the brakes away from the wheels, which apply the brakes until line pressure is restored, releasing the brakes by overcoming the springs. Each brake shoe is balanced in equilibrium with all the others, applying exactly the same dynamic pressure evenly along the entire train. There are many ways to compress air, this is the most common on steam locomotives.
Identical pumps can also be used to compress feed water into the boiler, so often there will be two compressors on the fireman's side of the engine. One to maintain the boiler water level and one to maintain the brake system air pressure.
Why not just use steam pressure? Steam pressure changes depending on the load of the locomotive and this isolates that variability. But more importantly, steam condenses into water when cooled, taking up less volume -decreasing the pressure - applying the brakes, and worse is the maintenance nightmare of water rusting the interior of the brake system parts. The moisture in the air, when compressed, precipitates out and is caught in the first pressure storage tank, which is why one finds a drain valve at the bottom of it.
This is the "finished" engine.
The janky exhaust linkage is visible. The exhaust was the intake when it was a air compressor. I bought it as a compressor at the flea market, and used it as one for about 8 years. it really needs a much heavier flywheel. It will run at about 15 psi, and starts jumping up and down at about 75. I built it in about 2 days.
