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!
