The Port of London authority purchased 10 Janus locomotives from the Yorkshire Engine Company to replace the last of its' large steam locomotives. The new diesels were finished in Oxford blue livery with oval numberplates. Following the end of commercial trade at the London docks most of these locomotives found new owners, several going to GKN/Allied Steel and Wire in South Wales.

GKN purchased several Yorkshire Engine Company Janus diesel shunters from the Port of London Authority, including 379, ex-PLA 201 to replace older diesel shunters at a number of the Allied Steel & Wire plants. The locomotives were painted in a pleasing Oxford blue livery with wasp-striped ends with nameplates carried over the end radiators. 379 Caerleon was usually employed at the Tremorfa rod mill, Cardiff.

Hornby R3180 00 Gauge Tarmac Sentinel 4w 0-4-0 Industrial Shunting Diesel Engine Weathered Finish

The large fleet of small industrial shunting engines has always lacked a good, detailed model. Hornby have made a good choice of prototype with this 4-wheel Sentinel diesel locomotive, a type which proved popular with industrial users, many large organisations operating sizable fleets.
Due to the consideration by the designers for ease of operation and safety for the crew Sentinels have remained in service until recent years, often only being replaced by newer locomotives from Sentinels' successors developed from the Sentinel design. Many Sentinels have since found new homes on heritage railways.

This model is painted in the green livery as a locomotive operated by aggregates and construction firm Tarmac.

This model is DCC Ready. Hornby have a special 4-pin decoder unit for these models available from their customer care department. Tel. 01843 233525. The service sheet lists part X9659 for the decoder.
