the code here is 601-21.

From December 1988 onwards the codes mean the following

601 which is signal red in this example

the -21 means the paint manufacturer and type of paint,

which in this case is Herberts STANDOX designated by the 2
and a solvent based paint designated by the 1

for more information this webpage is worth a look
