<p>[quote user="7j43k"]I visited Talgo's website, and Talgo appears to say that the tilt is passive, rather than active. So the tilting would always be activated. Perhaps the effect is so little at 30 MPH that the potential increase in speed is too insignificant to make note of.[/quote]</p> <p>Quote from the German article I linked: <em>Ab einer Geschwindigkeit von 70 km/h wird das Pendeln des Wagenkastens zugelassen.</em></p> <p>Translation: <em>Above a speed of 70 kph (44 mph) the tilting of the carbody is allowed. </em></p> <p>The author is VP Marketing of Talgo Germany.</p> <p>I know this is not proof but why should Talgo redesign the system.<br />Regards, Volker</p> <p> </p>
