That confirms that it is 31 105 then, which they have just repainted in BR blue!
Quite an appropriate choice as it was delivered to Stratford (London) in March 1959, then spent from November'59 to May'68 at Ipswich Shed, then 4 years at March(Cambs) before moving out of East Anglia. It came back to Stratford for 12 years from 1976-1988 though.
It may be the first loco named after Caroline, but there have been a couple of Ipswich Buses vehicles named after it (not to mention a couple of Mi Amigo's and a Veronica as well)......
