In this paper, using by the orthogonalities of modes for trainwheel (as Mindlin's annular plate and rail (as Timoshenko beam), the frequency equation of the coupled system are induced. It is convinced that the natural frequencies of coupled system are distributed to be about quadratic order function examined through the experimental and numerical analysis. The natural frequencies of the system coupled by both creep force and creep moment are composed of the natural frequencies of the system coupled by creep force and the natural frequencies of the system coupled by creep moment . And it is shown that the coupled natural frequencies up to 3rd do not make much difference from the values of the system coupled by individual creep force of creep moment. But the coupled natural frequencies higher than the 3rd are quite different from those of individual case.
