🚆 Ever wondered why railway wheels aren’t simply flat? 🤔
Their slightly conical shape is a clever piece of engineering. ⚙️
When a train takes a curve, the shape allows the two wheels to roll at different effective radii — helping them cover different distances without excessive slipping. 🔄
And when the train moves along a straight track, the same design creates a self-centering effect, helping keep the wheels aligned. 🎯
✨ A simple shape. Some clever physics.
