Limitations of ICF bogie Design
Required IongitudinaI and transverse fIexibiIities at
frame-axIe joint can not be obtained.
VerticaI space constraints to accommodate Ionger
secondary suspension springs.
Non avaiIabiIity of friction damping in the transverse
suspension.
Headstocks increase the yaw inertia of the bogie.
Large wheeIbase affects curvabiIity / WheeI fIange wear.
