context_page_description: The Yorkshire Engine Company Half Janus is a 0-6-0 wheel arrangement, diesel electric locomotive which weighs 31 long tons with a maximum speed of 23 mph. The Half Janus was built by the Yorkshire Engine Company in Sheffield between 1956 and 1965.
  Each locomotive was built with one Rolls Royce C6SFL 220 hp engine which was paired with one generator to power the traction motor mounted to the wheel set at the back of the locomotive under the cab.
  The locomotive was nicknamed the Half Janus because it had half the power and body of the Yorkshire Engine Company Janus. The Janus locomotive has two bonnets and the Half Janus has one. The Yorkshire engine company Janus got its name from the two-faced god, Janus.
