Trains and Railways. Children's Encyclopedia (Chevostik)

What types of trains are there? Why is it called a railway? Can rails be laid on ice or underwater?
In the new book of the Chevostik children's encyclopedia series, Uncle Kuzya and Chevostik will introduce children to the history and... structure of trains, railways, and the subway.
They will travel on the longest railway line in the world, attend the opening of the first station of the London underground, and visit a factory where carriages are made, learn what distinguishes a stagecoach from a charabanc (and what that even is!), why trains do not collide, and how goods are transported by rail. Our heroes will also discover railway professions and even take a look into the driver's cabin.
Who is Chevostik?
Chevostik is a charming character from a well-known audio project. Today, kids know him from encyclopedias. The series continues to publish books that explain the structure of the world to children.
Children perceive information much better when a fairytale character tells them about the world. That's why girls and boys love such encyclopedias.
Chevostik, along with Uncle Kuzya, makes amazing journeys into the world of sciences: physics, chemistry, astronomy, anatomy, geology, and others. He tells children about great geographical discoveries, conquering space, and magical chemical transformations.
