A model and accompanying computer program for determining the nonlinear steady state curving of locomotives having three axle trucks is described. Further developments to this model and improvements to the computer program that implements the modal are described in this paper. In particular, the techniques used to make the convergence procedure more 'robust' and faster are described. Results of a limited parameter study are presented.
