Yorkshire Engine Company Janus
Janus and Taurus were two models of diesel shunting locomotives by the Yorkshire Engine Company; one prototype of each being loaned to British Railways for demonstrations. However, BR did not buy any production versions after testing. At least one other Yorkshire Engine Company locomotive was loaned to British Railways in the 1960s.
The names are class names, not the names of specific locomotives.
