Popis: The main objective of this article is to describe the experimental way of verifying the ability of a tank wagon to deal with longitudinal forces in opposite track curves. In the methodology part, the measured and assessed quantities are described as well as the testing equipment. Next, the trainset composition used during the measurement is presented. Finally, measured results are presented and compared to the limit values given by UIC leaflet. These results show good quality of design solution of parts of the vehicle and vehicle as a whole.
