Here are the top stories we're working on for Wednesday's print edition:

- Iredell County commissioners snub light rail: County Commissioner Steve Johnson once said he wouldn't get out of the electric chair to vote for a commuter rail. Apparently, he wasn't alone. What does the future hold for this project after the commissioners denied funding for the project?

- High-tech assignment: Mitchell Community College physics students show off their problem-solving and robotics skills. Look for the video online, too.

Also in Wednesday's edition:
- Meet the contestants in this year's Dogwood Festival Pageant

Coming Soon:
- Iredell's Emerging Leaders: We're putting the finishing touches on a 56-page special section dedicated to introducing you to the rising stars in local business, education, government and nonprofit management. This section will be inserted in the R&L on Friday, May 4.

Thanks for reading,
