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!
