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!
