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!
