RAILS                  
                                          
                                          
  
                                          
  
                                          
                                          
 TRAINS  ARE  SO  CONSTRUCTED  THAT  THEY 
 HAVE TO FOLLOW A SET PATH.  THIS PATH IS 
 CALLED A "RAILWAY",  WHICH  IS COMPRISED 
 OF TWO METAL RAILS,  HENCE ITS NICKNAME. 
                                          
 BECAUSE  THE LOW  FRICTION  BETWEEN  THE 
 WHEELS OF THE TRAIN  AND THE RAIL METAL, 
 THERE ARE LIMITS  FOR  HOW ACUTE A CURVE 
 CAN  BE, AND EVEN  MORE  SO FOR HOW MUCH 
 THE  GROUND  UNDER  THE  RAILS  CAN   BE 
 SLOPED. THUS A RAILWAY IS OFTEN NOT  LED 
 ON TOP OF HILLS, RATHER THROUGH  THEM IN 
 TUNNELS  (IF   THEY   ARE   LARGE),   OR 
            ARTIFICIAL CHASMS.            
                                          
 THERE WILL BE TREES ON THE  SIDE  OF THE 
 RAILS, BUT  NOT TOO CLOSE,  OR THEY WILL 
 BE CUT  DOWN  BY  THE  RAILWAY JANITORS. 
 THERE WILL  BE  PLAINS,  AND  BODIES  OF 
                  WATER.                  
                                          
 TRAINS GO  BY  DAY  AND BY NIGHT.  ALONG 
       THE WAY, THERE IS INFORMATION      
 SCATTERED,  OFTEN  PUT ON TOP  OF POLES, 
 TO BE INTERPRETED  BY THE TRAIN DRIVERS. 
 DIFFERENT  PARTS  OF  THE  RAILWAY  HAVE 
          DIFFERENT SPEED LIMITS.         
                                          
 SOMETIMES, TRAINS  HAVE TO STOP AND WAIT 
 FOR SOMETHING TO  HAPPEN, FAR AWAY. THIS 
 IS  SIGNALED  BY  RED  OR  GREEN LIGHTS. 
                                          
                                  
                                          
 MANY  PEOPLE  FOLLOW THE  RAILS BY FOOT. 
 OFTEN  THIS  PROVES  TO  BE  THE SHORTER 
 PATH  BETWEEN TWO  POINTS. HOWEVER  THIS 
 IS  FROWNED  UPON,   AND  VERY  IMPOLITE 
         TOWARD THE TRAIN DRIVERS!
