A connecting member for connecting two longitudinal members of a bogie frame of a rail vehicle includes at least one fastening point for receiving add-on components, at least a first member element with a first member portion and a second member element with a second member portion, wherein the first and second member elements are connected to one another in a force-fitting manner by at least two connecting devices such that the member portions overlap one another at least in certain portions in order to damp vibrations that occur and to thus prevent oscillation of the system.

A bogie for locomotives is provided. Two wheelsets, each including a drive unit, are disposed in a bogie frame, wherein the wheelsets each include a wheelset shaft and two wheels. The drive unit comprises a motor unit and a transmission disposed to ride on an axle, and each motor unit is suspended at three points, namely at a main pivot point on the transverse beam of the bogie frame and two mounting points on a head beam of the bogie frame. Further, the motor unit is transversally elastically suspended; the transmission is mounted pivotally about the wheelset shaft but not displaceable along the wheelset shaft. The transmission is further connected to the motor unit by a transmission torque support, and the drive unit comprises a clutch by which the motor unit has a driving connection to the wheelset by the transmission.
