The rail line through Goll was discontinued in 1938, when the tracks were torn out and the rolling stock sold off. A post office was established in Goll in the 1896, and Edward Ashburton Lindsley (1869–1940) was appointed postmaster at Goll that year, replacing H. S. Brooks. The post office in Goll was closed in 1913.
