More than 50 people attended a recent meeting in Stover to discuss the coming of the Rock Island Trail.

The Rock Island Trail project will extend along an inactive rail line from Beaufort in Franklin County to Windsor near Kansas City, Mo.

The rail line runs across the state, but is active from Union to Chesterfield. There are no plans to convert the rail to a trail on the stretch that runs through Union, because it is heavily used by area industries.
