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!
