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!
