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!
