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!
