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!
