Abstract

A multiple axle railway locomotive truck includes a rigid truck frame spring supported on the axles, and a bolster formed with a plurality of upwardly facing nonresilient body supporting surfaces spaced apart longitudinally and transversely of the bolster, the bolster being supported on the truck frame at each side by a pair of elastomeric pad devices each of which is upwardly and inwardly inclined longitudinally of the truck so that their normals converge at a low level, preferably at that of the rail, the combination of the longitudinal spacing of the body supports and the rail-level convergence of the pad normals ensuring elimination of weight transference resulting from tractive forces. Preferably all motor reaction connections to the truck frame are in the same direction longitudinally of the truck from the respective axles whereby to eliminate axle-to-axle weight transference resulting from opposite motor reactions on the truck frame.
