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!
