Headlines are quick hits from media outlets from Missouri and around the world. Follow the headline link for the full story. The source of this headline says:

What happens when communities come together around a shared vision? In Missouri, the answer can be found along hundreds of miles of trails that connect people, places, and possibilities.

At the heart of the The Trail State documentary is Missouri's 237-mile Katy Trail, a former railroad corridor transformed into a nationally recognized asset that links communities across the state. Its success has inspired a new generation of trail projects, from the grassroots-driven Rock Island Trail in the Kansas City region to St. Louis's Brickline Greenway, demonstrating how trails can spark investment, strengthen local identity, and bring people together.

Through these stories, The Trail State explores how Missouri is leading the way in showing that trails are far more than recreational amenities. They serve as economic engines for towns and businesses, conservation tools that protect natural landscapes, and gathering places that foster stronger, more connected communities.

When the 1986 flood brought an end to the old MKT railroad, Missouri faced a pivotal choice. . . .

The documentary premieres October 12 at 7 pm on Nine PBS. Encore broadcasts air Wednesday, October 14 at 1 pm, Monday, November 2 at 7 pm, and Wednesday, November 4 at 1 pm, Viewers can also livestream the documentary during broadcast windows and stream it anytime on the PBS app with Nine PBS Passport.
