Scope and Content
Administrative / Biographical History
A train wheel or rail wheel is a type of wheel specially designed for use on railway tracks. A rolling component is typically pushed onto an axle and mounted directly on a railway carriage or locomotive, or indirectly on a bogie. Train wheels have a flange on one side to keep the wheels, and hence the train, running on the rails when the limits of the geometry-based alignment are reached, e.g. due to some emergency or defect.
