Abstract

See full text

A railway vehicle truck assembly comprises the following, in part: wheel sets having longitudinally spaced, transversely extending axles, and wheels mounted to the axles; transversely spaced longitudinally extending truck frames mounted to the axles; and a transversely extending bolster mounted to the truck frames. The bolster has a center bowl and opposed, elongated bolster arms extending from the center bowl. An underslung equalizer beam is located below the axles and mounted to the axle boxes. Brake beam guides are located in the equalizer spring seats which are located on the underslung equalizer beam. The equalizer beam is hot-box detector compatible so as to not interfere with the axle bearing detection scanners located alongside the railroad track.
