Carroll is a Leeds-built loco, built by Hudswell-Clarke at their Jack Lane works in 1946 as D631, and is a typical Hudswell diesel product from that era, with the steam loco style chimney and large side-opening doors, identifyign its manufacturer very clearly. The loco is powered by a de-rated Gardner 6LW (60hp instead of 107hp) which drives through a clutch and three-speed gearbox to a jackshaft.
In spring 1998, a major restoration of Carroll was completed. It included replacement of much bodywork, and the locomotive was also repainted in its original Hudswell green livery. Carroll is now once more to be seen engaged in shunting duties at Moor Road, or working passenger trains on summer Saturdays.
