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!
