What are the trains? Why is the road called a railroad? Can rails be laid on ice or underwater?
In the new book of a series of children's encyclopedias, Chevostik and Uncle Kuzya will get acquainted with the history and structure of trains, railways and the subway.
They will travel along the longest railway line in the world, visit the opening of the first London Underground station and the factory where cars are made, find out how a stagecoach differs from a charaban (and what it is!), why trains do not collide and how transport cargo. And our heroes will get acquainted with railway professions and even look into the driver's cab.
