Chastain to ride the rail again

Coming soon to a grocery near you: Clay Chastain.

The signature-gathering activist who left KC a few years back for Tennessee and later Virginia is riding once more to our rescue, this time for light rail.

Chastain will be petitioning to get an initiative before voters in March for a rail system that would run from Swope Park and the zoo to the Nelson, UMKC, Plaza, Westport, Union Station, the new Performing Arts Center, Sprint Center, City Market and over the river and through the Northland with stops that would include Zona Rosa and on to the airport.
