Why you place metals in railway track?
Trains are used by millions of people to travel to and from work. The tracks used by those trains need to take much pressure from the trains and must also last for many years. Metal is long wearing.

How do magnetic trains work and what makes them different from traditional trains?
Magnetic trains, also known as maglev trains, use powerful magnets to levitate and propel the train along the track. This technology eliminates the need for wheels and tracks, allowing the train to move smoothly and quietly at high speeds. Unlike traditional trains that rely on friction between wheels and tracks, maglev trains float above the track, reducing wear and tear, and enabling faster speeds and more efficient travel.
Do all model trains run on any brand of track?

How do railways work?
Railways work by using a system of tracks, locomotives, and freight or passenger cars to transport goods or people from one place to another.

Signals, switches, and control systems help to regulate the movement of trains along the railway network.

How does the London underground work?
The trains are powered by electric motors. Electricity is provided to the trains via the third rail, an electrified rail which runs along the tracks parallell to the "running rails" (which actually guide the train) and the trains have runners which transmit the electricity to their motors inside. Whereas mainline railways tend to have one third rail, the London Underground actually has two.
