This paper is intended as a general introduction to the concept of tilt and its value to the railways. Relevant railway curve design concepts are discussed, paving the way for a discussion of limits to tilt application. The performance advantages of tilting systems, including passenger comfort and reduced journey time, are discussed. Second-order effects such as increased track forces and fuel savings are also included.
