In this paper we present a simple model for the time history of the vibrations generated by a running underground train at a measuring point on the wall of a tunnel. The experimental data will be fitted to the model. As a result, a set of model parameters representative of the general maintenance condition of the bogies of the train will be estimated. Our work seeks to help the staff of metropolitan railways in charge of vibration control decide when to turn the wheels of their trains on a lathe.
