##¶&$%^~,, trains are so constructed that they ,,~^%$&¶##
##¶&$%^~,, have to follow a set path. this path is ,,~^%$&¶##
&&$%~,,,,, called a "railway", which is comprised ,,,,,~%$&&
##¶&$%^~,, of two metal rails, hence its nickname. ,,~^%$&¶##
¶&$%~~,,,, ,,,,~~%$&¶
##¶&$%^~,, because the low friction between the ,,~^%$&¶##
#¶$^~,,,,, wheels of the train and the rail metal, ,,,,,~^$¶#
¶$^,,,,,,, there are limits for how acute a curve ,,,,,,,^$¶
¶$$%~,,,,, can be, and even more so for how much ,,,,,~%$$¶
##¶&$%^~,, the ground under the rails can be ,,~^%$&¶##
¶$%^,,,,,, sloped. thus a railway is often not led ,,,,,,^%$¶
##¶&$%^~,, on top of hills, rather through them in ,,~^%$&¶##
#&&&$%^~,, tunnels (if they are large), or ,,~^%$&&&#
¶¶&$^,,,,, artificial chasms. ,,,,,^$&¶¶
&%^,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,^%&
##¶&$%^~,, there will be trees on the side of the ,,~^%$&¶##
¶¶&&$%^~,, rails, but not too close, or they will ,,~^%$&&¶¶
###¶&%^~,, 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 ,,~^%%%%&¶
