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!
