Abstract
Low mass, high speed trains may be in danger of being overturned by strong crosswinds. This paper examines the aerodynamic data required to estimate overturning wind speeds. The results of wind tunnel tests and a moving model experiment, including the effect of the turbulent wind, are described.Keywords
