A brake caliper comprising: a pair of arms (40, 50) each having a brake pad attached to one end thereof; at least one brake cylinder for outputting a force by which the pair of arms (40, 50) sandwich via the brake pad a disc mounted to an axle of a bogie; and a suspended portion that retains the pair of arms (40, 50) operatively and is connected with the bogie, wherein the suspended portion includes a rotation support portion that supports each of the pair of arms (40, 50) so as to be rotatable about a respective rotating shaft (35, 36) extending along a vertical direction orthogonal to a traveling direction of the bogie and an axial direction of the axle wherein the at least one brake cylinder is removably mounted to the suspended portion, and characterized in that the suspended portion further includes: a base portion that supports the rotation support portion so as to be swingable about a pivot shaft extending orthogonally to the axial direction of the axle of the bogie and along an extension direction of the pair of arms (40, 50); and a plate portion connecting between a first side and a second side, the first side extending on the rotation support portion along an axial direction of the rotating shaft (35, 36), the second side extending on the base portion along the pivot shaft, the plate portion having the at least one brake cylinder removably mounted thereto. a pair of arms (40, 50) each having a brake pad attached to one end thereof; at least one brake cylinder for outputting a force by which the pair of arms (40, 50) sandwich via the brake pad a disc mounted to an axle of a bogie; and a suspended portion that retains the pair of arms (40, 50) operatively and is connected with the bogie, wherein the suspended portion includes a rotation support portion that supports each of the pair of arms (40, 50) so as to be rotatable about a respective rotating shaft (35, 36) extending along a vertical direction orthogonal to a traveling direction of the bogie and an axial direction of the axle wherein the at least one brake cylinder is removably mounted to the suspended portion, and characterized in that the suspended portion further includes: a base portion that supports the rotation support portion so as to be swingable about a pivot shaft extending orthogonally to the axial direction of the axle of the bogie and along an extension direction of the pair of arms (40, 50); and a plate portion connecting between a first side and a second side, the first side extending on the rotation support portion along an axial direction of the rotating shaft (35, 36), the second side extending on the base portion along the pivot shaft, the plate portion having the at least one brake cylinder removably mounted thereto. a base portion that supports the rotation support portion so as to be swingable about a pivot shaft extending orthogonally to the axial direction of the axle of the bogie and along an extension direction of the pair of arms (40, 50); and a plate portion connecting between a first side and a second side, the first side extending on the rotation support portion along an axial direction of the rotating shaft (35, 36), the second side extending on the base portion along the pivot shaft, the plate portion having the at least one brake cylinder removably mounted thereto.
