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!
