Negotiation of turnouts imposes challenges for an active wheelset steering system due to lack of smooth transition curves and existence of rail discontinuities. These affect the performance of both the vehicle and control system in turnouts, which is investigated in this paper. The simulation is carried out with a conventional railway vehicle with two two-axle bogies passing through a crossover onto a parallel track. The Swedish 60E1-R760-1:5 turnout is used in this study. The results reveal that an active wheelset steering system can decrease the wheel–rail wear index. However, peaks in wear number take place in the switch toe and the crossing nose and they are considerably higher than other regions. A control scheme with preview is proposed by considering wheelset lateral positions on discontinuous rail profiles to avoid flange contact. The proposed control system with preview results in a further reduction of the maximum wear number by 66%.
