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!
