###¶#*^/«~ trains  are  so  constructed  that  they ~«/^*#¶###
##¶#*^/«~¨ have to follow a set path.  this path is ¨~«/^*#¶##

«~¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ sloped. thus  a railway is often not led ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨~«
/«~¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ on top of hills, rather  through them in ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨~«/

*^/«~¨¨¨¨¨ scattered,  often put  on top of  poles, ¨¨¨¨¨~«/^*
^/«~¨¨¨¨¨¨ to be interpreted by  the train drivers. ¨¨¨¨¨¨~«/^
