Carp was originally a small railroad station for the Union Pacific Railroad. The post office started under the name of "Cliffdale" on June 29, 1918, but was rescinded.[3][4] It then officially opened under the name of "Cliffdale" June 7, 1921 and changed yet again to "Carp" December 1, 1925. The present name "Carp" is after a railroad agent.[5] In 1941 the population was 66.[5] The Carp post office remained open to serve rural ranches until July 1, 1974, when it closed permanently. Little remains of Carp today except a railroad siding usually occupied by idling trains, and the remains of the watering reservoir.
