WCBU's On Deck has everything you need to know to start your day for Monday, April 11. Our top story is about a plan to bring more open green space to Peoria’s river front. You’ll also hear about how Peoria’s ambitions to re-establish passenger rail rekindled one longtime Peorian’s love for trail travel. WCBU’s Tim Shelley interviews veteran journalist Bill Knight about his love for Amtrak and his thoughts on Mayor Rita Ali’s passenger rail proposal … topics Knight covered in a recent column in the Community Word monthly newspaper. On Deck is produced by WCBU student intern Holden Kellogg.
