A system for containing derailment of a railway vehicle from rails over which the railway vehicle moves. The derailment system includes a derailment apparatus provided on each side frame of the railway vehicle. In one instance, each derailment apparatus has inner and outer laterally spaced and free ended depending arms disposed above a head section of the rails as long as the railway vehicle wheels ride on the rails. In the event either wheel becomes derailed, one the rails is received and accommodated within a pocket defined by the respective derailment apparatus. When a derailment occurs, the depending arms of the derailment apparatus extend below and to opposed sides of the head section of a rail received and accommodated in the pocket of the respective derailment apparatus whereby inhibiting total derailment of the railway vehicle from the rails over which the railway vehicle is traveling.

An anti-derailment apparatus for a bogie of a rail vehicle of the disclosure comprises at least one mounting seat and an anti-derailment slide plate. The transverse orientation of the anti-derailment slide plate on the mounting seat and the extending length of the anti-derailment slide plate in the vertical direction meet the following requirements simultaneously: 1) making the anti-derailment slide plate located at the inside of the ground rail when the rail vehicle runs normally; 2) when at least one wheelset of the rail vehicle climbs rail, the anti-derailment slide plate acts on the ground rail to form lateral limitation points so as to limit the freedom of the rail vehicle and make it still constrained by the ground rail.

A bogie for a high-speed railway vehicle includes a wheel set, an axle box, a primary spring suspension device, a frame, a secondary spring suspension device and a foundation braking device. A wheel of the wheel set has an LMA wheel tread. The foundation braking device is mounted by a three-point hitch structure. The axle box is a structure which is separatable in a vertical direction, and an off-line safety protecting device is mounted at a lower portion of the axle box. A traction rod of the secondary spring suspension device is a single traction rod. A center pin is provided with an integral hoisting device. Two anti-yaw dampers, as a group, are arranged at either side of the secondary spring suspension device, and the two anti-yaw dampers have the same damping coefficient.
