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!
