Selma was officially chartered as a town on February 11, 1873, but the Town's true birth took place on May 1, 1867 when lots were sold around a newly established station on the North Carolina Railroad. Selma was born as a Railroad Town, and our rail heritage is still evident - from our recently renovated 1924 passenger Depot, which supports AMTRAK service, to our Mitchener Station, built ca. 1855, thought to be the oldest surviving train station in North Carolina.
