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!
