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!
