TVS2000boji.jpg (96651 bytes)

A shot of Y-32 bogie of the TVS2000 type luxury coach of TCDD. The bogie is the same as the bogies on which SNCF Corail coaches ride, and it is the key feature of TVS2000's. Because it provides very good comfort on the low quality TCDD lines. Normally, the maximum speed of this bogie is 200 km/h, however the car has a Vmax of 160 km/h. The guess is that the lack of reinforced braking and wheel slip control system causes this difference. I think retrofit is feasible.
