I found nothing on this except one reference in a list of post offices. GHits were very low in comparison to other dubious town names in the county. The coordinates point to a spot on the former rail line, but their source is anyone's guess; maps and aerials show nothing there.Mangoe (talk) 21:47, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete No sign of anything at this location, presumably another rail landmark. –dlthewave ☎ 12:29, 18 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Train stations were often the site of a fourth-class post office serving the surrounding countryside. As we've discussed many times, existence of a post office is not an indicator of notability. I don't see anything else that supports the idea that this was a notable location.
