A solebar for a railway vehicle has an elongate body that comprises a first leg and a second leg, wherein the first leg and second are configured to meet at a vertex and have an obtuse angle θ therebetween such that the solebar has an obtuse L-shaped cross-sectional profile. The solebar is mounted as an underframe side member in a railway vehicle such that the first leg extends in a downwardly direction towards a floor supporting the railway vehicle and clears a lower sector of a loading gauge, and the second leg inclines upwardly in a direction away from railway vehicle and clears an upper sector of the loading gauge. The second leg is configured to support an upper sidewall of a body of the railway vehicle such that the upper sidewall clears the upper sector of the loading gauge.
