This paper presents a theory to utilise the longitudinal vibration in bogies as a dynamic vibration absorber (DVA) to reduce the vertical bending vibration of railway vehicle carbodies in a simple and easy way. This study focuses upon the interaction between carbody vertical bending and bogie longitudinal motion, and the condition for tuning the natural frequency of the bogie motion to the target carbody vibration is derived theoretically using a very simple formula. Numerical and experimental studies are then outlined to validate the theory and formula, and the DVA effects are observed from both of them. The effectiveness of the method is also confirmed from a running test with a Shinkansen train on a commercial line.
