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!
