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!
