Abstract:
A rail vehicle includes a coupling disposed centrally in a front region of the rail vehicle. The coupling is mounted in a transversely extended crossmember, so that forces acting on the coupling are introduced through the crossmember into abutments which are supported on a front side of a car body of the rail vehicle. The crossmember is connected through at least one elastic energy absorption configuration to one of the abutments.
