CHICAGO -- More bomb-sniffing dogs could be on the way for Metra, now that the commuter rail agency has taken the Transportation Security Administration up on its offer to provide free dogs and training.
TSA has a grant program for airports and transit systems wanting to expand their canine security teams, but until recently, Metra chose not to apply for TSA dogs because it did not have the manpower or facilities for them, officials said.
Metra now says it has applied for three bomb detection dogs from TSA. She said Metra had approached the Chicago Police Department about providing handlers before reaching out to State Police. But first, the dogs and their State Police handlers must pass a week training course and go through a local certification process before they could be deployed at Metra stations, TSA spokeswoman Lara Uselding said.
