The invention relates to railway vehicle detection equipment, and more particularly relates to a dual-six-degree-of-freedom connecting rod actuator type drive platform for the railway vehicle. The dual-six-degree-of-freedom connecting rod actuator type drive platform comprises a six-degree-of-freedom connecting rod actuator type drive platform I, a six-degree-of-freedom connecting rod actuator type drive platform II, an actuator lateral supporting platform, a lateral supporting platform I and a lateral supporting platform II, wherein each six-degree-of-freedom connecting rod actuator type drive platform comprises three horizontal action actuators, two vertical action units and a six-degree-of-freedom supporting platform, the three horizontal action actuators are respectively movably connected with the six-degree-of-freedom supporting platform through a connecting rod, the six-degree-of-freedom supporting platform is respectively installed on the lateral supporting platforms I and II through the two vertical action units, and a wheel clamp is installed on the upper surface of the six-degree-of-freedom supporting platform. The dual-six-degree-of-freedom connecting rod actuator type drive platform combines a rubber air spring and a dual-six-degree-of-freedom testing platform, the testing platform does not need to be balanced and stabilized by a special staff after the testing is finished, the operation is simple, and the preparation time before and after the testing is shortened.
