The operational locomotives were built by Orenstein & Koppel, 600mm gauge. I haven't seen a clear photo of what kind of compressors they are using there now..
These were built with steam jam, vacuum and air brakes. The catalog illustrations I've seen seem to indicate that air pumps are probably made by Knorr
