N2  - Modified railway passenger truck designs are considered to improve the comparability between dynamic stability and the ability of the vehicle to steer around curves. A comparative study on the nonlinear steady state curving behaviour of some unconventional truck designs reveals that a modified truck design in which the primary suspension in the leading axle is different from the trailing axle - known as the unsymmetrical suspension truck - has the potential to achieve overall superior performance compared to other truck models considered in this paper.<p />
