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!
