ABSTRACT A railroad wheel has evolved over the last two centuries with increasing load
and speed. A harder wheel maintains its geometry and therefore is able to negotiate the
track without giving rise to high forces. This paper describes pressure poured cast wheel
and forged wheel manufacturing processes. As experimentally verified on other railways,
pressure poured cast wheels have been used satisfactorily in locomotive and passenger
services in the Indian railways where conventionally forged wheels were used worldwide.
