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!
