Abstract
This paper deals with guiding behaviour of a diesel-electric locomotive equipped with new three-axle bogies
which were developed in co-operation of the company CZ LOKO and the Faculty of Transport Engineering of
the University of Pardubice. At first, the design of the new bogie intended for the track gauge 1520 mm is shortly
introduced. Then, the attention is paid to three different variants of secondary suspension design and their influence
on lateral force effects of the locomotive on track in curves. The assessment is performed by means of the multibody
simulation tool “SJKV” and it takes into account GOST standards. Possibilities of application of a system of
active elements for bogie steering are also evaluated.
