The system comprises elastic elements parallel to the longitudinal axis of the railway bogie, connected with arms (3) of wheelsets (4) on the left and the right side of the railway bogie. The each elastic element is made of a single sheet of elastic material with two parallel longitudinal side cuts separating the side strips constituting whiskers (1b) from the longer central strip (1a), where the ends of the whiskers (1b) are permanently connected with a rigid cleat (2), the central strip (1a) has a fragment bent in the shape of a channel section, located between the whiskers (1b) and the cleat (2), and the flat end of the central strip (1b), passing under the cleat (2), is attached to the arm (3) of the adjacent wheelset (4).
