Springrail is a form of spring-loaded clockwork-driven monorail used to travel around the United Isles of America.[1]
Springrails are the primary form of transportation between islands. On many islands, the springrail station is an important location.[citation needed] Springrails have gotten cheaper over time.[2] Joel's father allegedly[2] died in a springrail accident.
Springrails hang beneath their tracks, which are about ten feet tall. The train cars are long and slender, designed like ornate carriages. Springwork engines are located towards the front of the train cars, usually at least two. Workers attach giant springwork batteries, which contain very tightly wound springs.[3] Many Rithmatists are employed by springrail companies, using chalklings with Glyphs of Rending to wind large spools to prepare the springrail batteries.
