Abstract: The present invention pertains to a bogie for high-speed railborne vehicles, in which the wheel sets are guided on the bogie frame by double leaf spring wheel forks. Stable, quiet straight travel of the bogie over straight sections at top speeds and radial adjustment of the wheel sets in rail bends at low tracking forces is achieved by arranging a a roll stabilizer damping the horizontal longitudinal movements between the axle bearing and the bogie frame between the leaf spring wheel forks of each double leaf spring wheel fork.
