Yes, works:

Cisco-M-XII uptime is 5 weeks, 3 days, 7 hours, 4 minutes
System returned to ROM by power-on
System restarted at 06:01:10 MEDST Sat Sep 29 2001
System image file is "slot0:c7200-k3p-mz.120-18.S.bin"

cisco 7206VXR (NPE300) processor with 155648K/40960K bytes of memory.

(the order of SIMMs is relevant, the 128Mb SIMM must be in slot 2, and
the 64 Mb SIMM in slot 3, do not move slot 0 and do not put anything in
slot 1... - if you make a mistake there, the machine won't boot, but it
will tell you what's wrong. Took me three tries to get it right :-) -
that's what you get for not reading docs)
