Taking a suspension bridge of (84+84+1092+84+84) m high-speed railway as an example, a nonlinear dynamic simulation model of long-span suspension bridge-tracks system is established. The seismic response characteristics of CWR system of railway suspension bridge under the action of multi-dimensional seismic waves are analyzed. The effects of design parameters such as initial temperature load mode and viscous damper on the seismic response of the system are discussed. Calculation results showed that the longitudinal seismic excitation has great influence on the steel rail stress on the adjacent bridges on both sides and the longitudinal shear force at the pier bottom, and the transverse seismic excitation has great influence on the steel rail stress on the main truss of the suspension bridge, the vertical seismic excitation has a great influence on the internal forces of the main cable and sling; the initial temperature load has a significant influence on the internal forces of the main cable and sling; by reasonably setting the damping coefficient and speed index of the viscous damper, it can effectively reduce the displacement at the end of the main tower pier beam and the bending moment at the bottom of the pier.
