and equipment requirements for the service and inspection and heavy repair
areas of the maintenance facilities, and performing string-line operational
analysis of train movements throughout the yard. The first is under
construction in Lachine and will accommodate the commuter trains that
operate on the Canadian Pacific right-of-way, and the second is in design and
will be constructed in Pointe St. Charles to support trains operating on
Canadian National Railway tracks. The Lachine Yard and Shop complex was
bid and awarded as a public-private partnership procurement, and the Pointe

phase plan to standardize and automate preventive maintenance work orders
for Metra’s fixed assets. Mr. Bossung was responsible for the development of
maintenance requirements for Metra’s yard and shop equipment. The firm
then evaluated and customized an off-the-shelf web-based CMMS
application to replace Metra’s paper-based legacy system and conducted site
inventories to survey and document Metra’s facilities equipment and assets,
which were then loaded into the CMMS asset database. During the second

all design work, including complete bisection of the existing shop floor;
addition of three new service tracks, a wheel-truing machine, and six sets of
car hoists; and massive structural and system upgrades. His recommendation
to use a precast concrete design led to the project being completed on time
and within budget. Major rerouting of mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and
utilities were necessary to enable the completion of this design-build
renovation without interrupting the day-to-day operations on the adjacent
tracks. The project received the Project of the Year award in January 2010
from The Design-Build Institute of America in the Transportation category.

and repair of its rolling stock in Queens, NY. Mr. Bossung was responsible
for conceptual layouts and formulation of innovative methods, procedures,
and systems to result in productivity improvements, functional controls, and
operating expense reductions within areas of equipment repair and
maintenance. During the conceptual development, emphasis was placed upon
areas where robotics and automated systems could be cost-justified for
inclusion into the new facility (i.e., robotic high pressure washing, automated
car progression systems, centralized vacuum systems, chip conveying and
lubricating systems, and automatic exterior washers). He worked closely with
potential vendors for selection and modification of specialized equipment
and machinery to be included in the new facility. Mr. Bossung also
supervised the building equipment and support systems (i.e., electrical,
plumbing, heating, ventilation, fire protection, and communication systems),
contract drawings, and bid specifications that interfaced with the civil,
structural, and material handling (ASRS/AGV) systems provided by others.
Final activities included STV’s technical input as related to the construction
management tasks of bid evaluation, addenda, change order preparation, and
control of final construction costs during the actual completion of the project.
In addition, Mr. Bossung developed a computerized system to promote more
efficient scheduling and control over the maintenance of the railroad’s fleet
of 770 electric commuter cars. (12/82 - 10/84)

West Side. Facilities included an equipment maintenance shop that contains a
specialized wheel truing machine capable of milling wheel profiles to their
original contour without their being removed from the underside of the car.
This pit-mounted milling machine required special design modifications to
facilitate both car progression and automatic chip removal systems. The
conceptual development of this facility incorporated extensive ergonomic
analysis resulting in four different floor elevations that promote easy access
to various carborne components for maintenance. Other facilities designed at
this location included an automated control tower, power substation, cleaning
platform, track and signal shop, crew quarters, and automated recycling
exterior washer. With Mr. Bossung’s guidance, this project was completed

MD State Railroad Administration MARC Locomotive and Car
Evaluation Program - Principal-in-Charge
Held overall responsibility for engineering services and purchasing
recommendations for ten used commuter coaches and two secondhand EMD
F-7 locomotives that the Maryland State Railroad Administration proposed to
acquire for Maryland Area Regional Commuter (MARC) service established
between Baltimore and Brunswick, MD. The equipment became available
when the Port Authority of Allegheny terminated commuter rail service in
Pittsburgh. As a first step, a cost analysis of the equipment was presented and
specifications were prepared to rehabilitate and upgrade the locomotives and
convert the former long distance coaches for commuter service. The
proposed improvements included replacing the steam heating system with
electric heat and the installation of a new air conditioning system. The
inspection for MARC considered the availability of similar equipment in the
market, the visible wear accumulated since the cars had been refurbished,
and the lead times to purchase new or comparable used equipment. The study
provided specific recommendations regarding the value of the equipment and
the costs associated with necessary refurbishment. (1992 - 1994)
Caltrans Peninsula Commute Service Inspection and Maintenance
Facility - Technical Review Board
Provided technical guidance and support for the design of the new rail
maintenance facility in San Francisco for Caltrans.
MD State Railroad Administration MARC Equipment Maintenance
Facilities Needs Study - Principal-in-Charge
Held overall responsibility for the study to evaluate the maintenance facility
needs of the Maryland Area Regional Commuter (MARC) system in
Baltimore over a 20-year period. The study included consideration of
MARC’s existing five-year strategic plan and existing facilities, the projected
300% growth in fleet size as it pertained to equipment needs and type, and
existing maintenance agreements, as well as possible fleet standardization,
including choice of locomotive power; relocation of maintenance operations
from crowded facilities to other locations; modification of facilities to
accommodate future servicing needs; relocation of inspection and running
repair operations; development of new service and maintenance facilities and
the modification of operating agreements; and work force relocation options
as they relate to labor protection laws.
