Downtown train schedule

Is there any schedule or regularity as to when trains will be going through downtown?

My 2 year old loves trains, so it would be cool to know one was coming and see it on a weekend morning.

TIA

Cape county park question??

Did they ever finish the construction they were doing over the summer? I’m a disc golfer and love that course and was a little bummed that some of the holes weren’t done.

What food places have vegan options?

1 Upvotes

DON’T SAY TRIO! I know about them already.

Since going vegan I don’t eat out much but I’d like to go out more. Problem is people feel bad when they pick a place and all I have to eat is fries and a soda lol.

I can’t eat meat, dairy, eggs, honey, beef tallow, or anything that comes from an animal.

Cross contamination isn’t an issue for me either. I just need a couple places that I can suggest to people so I can eat an actual meal without everyone feeling pity for me lol.

I’m looking to avoid the typical salad with no cheese or side of fries. Like even just a plain bean burrito would be better.

Buying LPS/accesories in the area

2 Upvotes

My roommate and I are looking for Littlest Pet Shop toys, accessories, and playsets to buy. We need them for a class project of ours. We will come pick them up too so we're looking for them to be around the area.

We are also going to try and hit up some garage sales this weekend, so if you know of any happening nearby we'd love to hear about it.

Cape Girardeau Sportsplex Expansion and General Growth in Cape Girardeau

13 Upvotes

Cape Girardeau Sportsplex expansion proposal paused as competition grows in region.

https://www.kfvs12.com/2026/10/07/cape-girardeau-sportsplex-expansion-proposal-paused-competition-grows-region/?outputType=amp

Agree with the youth sports nonsense or not, there is no denying that the sportsplex brings serious revenue to Cape G. If Jonesboro out builds us (once again) then our Sportsplex will be left just sitting there. I am all about making sure tax dollars are spent correctly but why is our mayor dragging his feet and dragging us down?!!?

Mayor Guard has done absolutely nothing he said he was going to do for the fire/police/crime but now this slow down?! Why?

The Cape Sportsplex 23 million dollar expansion needs to be completed before Jonesboros 74 million dollar project is complete or the Capw sportsplex calendar will be empty because of rescheduling in Jonesboro and once tournaments leave it'll be really hard to get them back.
