Summary[]
Mr. Clever answers the self-titled question regarding it, saying "Trains can go anywhere there are rails. They don't run on roads, but on a path traced by two iron bars installed next to each other. The train's wheels rest on this railway. There are a huge number of railway tracks on earth. Except in places where nature prevents them from passing. Trains connect cities. You can travel to the other side of the world by train! But not on the same train! You'll have to change trains: get off at one station, take another train at another station, etc. To make all that work, you have to be incredibly clever!" all whilst in empathy with the reader.
