Resuming our trip through Ventura County, we have yet another rail location. The topos show two different locations, suggesting that the next station/siding east was taken out and replaced with one a little to the east of the old Lagol. Searching, once you force Google to use the right spelling, is dominated by scanning errors (my favorite being the "lagol with cream cheese" which can be ordered with "Masonal fresk fruit") but I did find one reference in a photo caption identifying it as a rail location, and a few others having to do with soil series. Nothing suggests this was a real settlement, though, and considering the scanning issues, the number of GHits is small. Mangoe (talk) 15:39, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• A postal directory hinted that this might be Fremontville, California (colloquially known as Fremont) but that was further to the east on Los Angeles Avenue, and the GNIS importers didn't know about it because it is part of the history of Moorpark, like Epworth, California is (Sheridan 1926, p. 457). Apart from the name "Lagol siding" I have been unable to find anything about Lagol at all. Ternez and Whistle, California, the next two things on the railway line before Moor Park (according to Results of Spirit-leveling) are equally mysterious, and saying that "the view from Lagol and Ternez is fine" (Diller 1915, p. 102) seems unencyclopaedic. Luckily, the GNIS importers didn't know about them, either. (Whistle is implied to be a farm crossing, because it had a cattle grid.) This is not notable.
