Welcome...
Monthly Club Meetings Our first meeting of the 2002/2003 season is Thursday September 12, 2002: Speaker: Dr. Paul Rhine Company: General Motors, Electro Motive Division Position: Manager Product Reliability and Maintenance Dr. Paul E. Rhine is a Senior Project Engineer focusing on the diagnostic and reliability enhancements for General Motors Electro Motive Division. Paul has a PhD in physics from Kansas State University. He worked for the Union Pacific railroad with 8 years in the Mechanical Engineering Department and 8 years in Operations. Paul led efforts to change railroad operating behaviours to improve overall efficiency. His claim to fame from Union Pacific was saving the railroad 45 million gallons of gas a year in improving the operating behaviours (before their expansion). Paul went to Rockwell Collins in 1986 to work on the development of the Locomotive Automatic Reporting System. This involved the application of Yesian network modelling to the locomotive systems. Paul worked with Rockwell Scientific in Palo Alto on LARS. His current work at EMD focuses on remote sensing in the diagnostic and reliability capabilities of EMD and its customers. His talk will focus on why trains have developed into what they are today. Do you have any ideas for a future meeting topic?

Typically it consists of a tour of some local facility followed by a dinner and door prize giveaway. In previous years the Spree has taken tours of the Milwaukee Deep Tunnel Project, Discovery World Museum, Sprecher Brewery, and the Milwaukee Post Office.
