Abstract
The present invention provides a three axle railway truck. The truck comprises three wheelsets supporting two parallel sideframes. Each sideframe comprises two sections. One wheelset is located near the longitudinal middle of the sideframes, with the two other axle wheelsets located near either end of the sideframes. Two bolsters extend laterally across between these sideframes, with each bolster located between the center axle and an end axle. The bolster ends are received in pockets in the sideframes. Each bolster has a centerplate structure receiving a pin as part of an articulated connection spanning between and connecting the bolsters.
