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!
