This paper present a review of past and present research and experience with failure mechanisms of railroad journal roller bearings as well as possible future solutions to any problems that exist due to present bearing and truck design. A classification and description of bearing failure progression is made and a connection between various bearing defects and final failure is discussed. In view of the increasing demands on the railroad wheelset journal roller bearing and the projection of performance trends, various scenarios for failure prevention and detection are outlined, and suggestions for bearing maintenance and operating practice and needed future research are made.
