This shows the H4X bogie, only fitted to Hastings and POP II train at its outer ends. The H4X was a dynamic prototype for the APT-P Trailer bogies and had a similar tilt system fitted with almost horizontal tilt jacks fitted fore and aft of the secondary air spring, which is clearly visible. The tilt jack attachment points can just be made out above the upward crank in the bogie side frames. At the time this photo was taken the jacks had been replaced with solid struts however.
