The present invention relates to a rail vehicle unit, comprising a running gear (102) and a wagon body unit (101.1) forming two contact partners and defining a longitudinal direction, a transverse direction and a height direction. The wagon body unit (101.1) is supported on the running gear (102) via a suspension device (106), a first rotational buffer device (115) and a second rotational buffer device (115) being associated to the running gear (102) and the wagon body unit (101.1). The first rotational buffer device (115) and the second rotational buffer device (115) are adapted to damp a rotational motion between the running gear (102) and the wagon body unit (101.1) about a rotational axis parallel to the height direction. The first rotational buffer device (115) and the second rotational buffer device (115) are configured to form a traction link between the running gear (102) and the wagon body unit (101.1), the traction link being configured to transmit at least a major fraction of a total traction force to be transmitted along the longitudinal direction between the running gear (102) and the wagon body unit (101.1).
