Around 1910, Bagol was the only railway station on proposed Udaipur–Fulad Railway line by Bombay, Baroda and Central India Railway (BB&CI). Due to some government planning the work of extending the railway line via Bagol was stopped. The railway building still exists in Bagol, which is now under Forest Department. Bhavarlalji kothari made many contributions in this village.

Architecture

Shri Chintamani Parshvanath Temple in Bagol is one of the special Jain temple famous for its ancient and historical sculpture of Chintamani Parshwanath.

The most prominent and obvious variation of the statue is that it is enhanced by stand of Shesh Nag on each of its shoulders. In general an idol includes only one snake placed overhead.
