A steering mechanism configured to rotate first and second axles relative to bogie-frame to perform steering; electric motors supported by bogie-frame, arranged at the front and rear sides in the car longitudinal direction, respectively, including output shafts, respectively, and output shafts being parallel to first and second axles at the time of non-steering; reducers connected to axles, respectively; and first constant velocity ball joint by which the first output shaft is coupled to the first reducer and which follows rotations of the first axle at the time of steering to allow relative displacement between the first output shaft and the first reducer, and a second constant velocity ball joint by which the second output shaft is coupled to the second reducer and which follows rotations of the second axle at the time of the steering to allow relative displacement between the second output shaft and the second reducer.
