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!
