A system for measuring angle of attack of a wheelset of a railway vehicle travelling on a section of railway track, the system including: a first sensor configured to be mounted on a first rail of the railway track and to output a first continuous analog wheel sensor signal sensing the approaching, arriving and departing of a first wheel of the wheelset; a second sensor configured to be mounted on a second rail of the railway track and to output a second continuous analog wheel sensor signal sensing the approaching, arriving and departing of a second wheel of the wheelset, wherein the first and second sensors are substantially aligned along an axis perpendicular to the railway track; a data acquirer configured to receive the first and second continuous analog wheel sensor signals from the first and second sensors and convert the continuous analog wheel sensor signals to digital signals, the digital signals including peak indicia representative of the times of arrival of the centres of the first and second wheels; and a processor configured to determine the angle of attack of the wheelset from the digital signals based on the difference in times of arrival of the centres of the first and second wheels.
