Abstract

The invention relates to a rail vehicle which has two wagon bodies (1, 2) coupled via a single axle articulated joint (8), said wagon bodies each placed elastically on a double axle bogie positioned approximately in the longitudinal central area. Control elements are provided to detect the angle of rotation between the wagon bodies (1, 2) and their corresponding bogies (4), and the angle of articulation at the articulated joint (8) as well as controllable actuators for influencing the angle of articulation depending on the control elements. The angle of articulation is regulated to a control value, said control value being the sum of the current actual angle of articulation measured (K-ist) and the bending angle (A1 and A2), in order to be able to minimise the clearance required whilst the railway vehicle is travelling dynamically.
