Selma, Kansas

Selma is an unincorporated community in Anderson County, Kansas, United States.[1]

History

A post office was opened in Selma in 1887, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1956.[2]

The town was at the junction of the Kansas, Nebraska and Dakota Railroad and the Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad. The MKT maintained a passenger depot in Selma until some time in the 1940s.

gollark: Is that a bad thing?
gollark: What?
gollark: Is it, though? It might be more effort to monetize it somehow than it would be to release it so people can benefit from it.
