§¨¨¨¨§¨§§¨ 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. ¨§§§¨§§§§¨

§§§§¨§§§§§ 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 ¨¨¨§§§¨§§¨
