In the present article, the authors try to present the most widely used bogies in the world in a popular scientific form compared to the innovative bogie. Listed are the main trends in the development of new bogies with a more detailed description of the requirements that have been achieved in the development of the new bogie bearing the name ZDK-SB. The authors conclude that the conservative approach of railways, in conjunction with legislative requirements, to a certain extent hinders the more vigorous enforcement of new innovative solutions.

Keywords: Rail freight bogie; self steering; track-friendly; noise
