Hornby have produced a number of different Live steamers in OO scale for a while now. How good they are, I am not too sure. They are controlled by dc pulsed signals down the track and power to heat the water is controlled by the dc voltage across the tracks, so they are not totally self contained like your example.

Best wishes,
Chris.

[Later. Having peaked my curiosity, I have just gone stoopid and bought one along with the relevant power sources. Now I need to get a circle of track.]
