A rail vehicle wheel set intermediate frame for mounting a wheel set without a bogie frame on a sub-frame of a car body of a rail vehicle, the wheel set intermediate frame comprising:
- longitudinal frame members each having a mounting interface for engaging against a respective longitudinal member of the sub-frame and fixedly mounting the intermediate frame to the sub-frame;
- a plurality of mounting interfaces disposed at predetermined positions for chassis components;
- said plurality of mounting interfaces including a mounting interface for a wheel set guide, the wheel set guide configured to transmit longitudinal forces between the wheel set and the wheel set intermediate frame and to guide the wheel set on a track;
- and
- said plurality of mounting interfaces including a mounting interface for a braking device, the braking device positioned exactly relative to wheels of the wheel set to develop a braking effect.
