,,,,,,,~%# 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 ##£#§%;~:,
