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!
