,,,,,&&&,, 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! ,,,&,,,&&,
