	RAIL - LoveToKnow Article on RAIL (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		Rallus, of unknown origin), originally the English name of two birds, distinguished from one another by a prefix as land-rail and water-rail, but latterly applied in a much wider sense to all the species which are included in the family Rallidae.
		The water-rail, locally known as the skiddy or billcock, is the Rallus aquaticus of ornithology, and seems to be less abundant than the preceding, though that is in some measure due to its frequenting places ipto which from their swampy nature men do not often intrude.
		Having a general resemblance to the land~rail,i it can be in a moment distinguished by its partly red and much longer bill, and the darker coloration of its plumagethe upper parts being of an olive brown with fl streaks, the breast and belly of a sooty grey, and the flanks dull fl barred with white.

		The High Lords of Terra titled the world Rallus V to Dark Aegis, to act as their base, and support personel and equipment was brought in to establish a small fortress-monestary.
		Rallus V is a reasonably hospitable world, but the people there had reverted long ago to a pre-industrial level, roughly 18th Century in technology, which meant they were competant with firearms and artillery, as well as close combat.
		Rallus V was further a heavily balkanized world, with dozens of small nation-states constantly bickering and warring with one another over resources, land, or even just petty jingoism.

	The Virginian Rail
		In its habits the Rallus virginianus is intermediate between the R. crepitans and Orlygometra carolinus: it obtains its food as well in salt-water marshes as in fresh meadows, watery savannahs, and the borders of ponds and rivers.
		It is placed on a small elevation formed by the accumulation of the stalks of a large bunch of grasses, in the centre of which some dry weeds are arranged to the height of two or three inches, with a very shallow cavity.
		Their comparative scarcity, however, prevents the gunner from searching after them with the same eagerness as he pursues the Rallus crepitans, and to shoot a dozen in the course of a day may be considered a remarkable feat.
