light rail

A post modern, post oil train that is basically a cross between a big city subway (e.g. metro) and an old school trolly. When serviced by a competent organization, this type of train has the potential to beat the living shit out of global warming and peak oil.

In America, however, when mismanaged by your typical urban state government, a light rail system quickly becomes a broken down version of the world's smallest joke amongst the increasing proportion of working folk who can't afford $4/gallon gasoline.

The Baltimore light rail is a vital link of the area's public transit system, yet it just makes the city look more ghetto while it does very little to reduce traffic on interstates 83 and 97. Furthermore, it fails to convince the youth of Glen Burnie and Cockeysville that pimped out Civics and low riders are not the wave of our global ecological future.

Railbird

A person that watches or gambles on a game of pool without actually playing

You should see the side money games at pool expo - I saw a race to 21 racks of 10-ball for $5,000. Must've been 50 railbirds around that table getting in on the action.

Rail Slide

When one willing individual snorts a line of cocaine (benzoylmethylecgonine, an ecgonine derivative) off of another man's penis imitating a skateboard grinding or sliding down a hand rail of a set of stairs.

Bro, you were so drunk that you did a rail slide in the men's bathroom. Gat damn.

rahida

The most funniest and prettiest person ever!!! But don't let her humour distract you from her ignorance. She couldn't care about what people think or say about her and is very confident in herself.

Jess: "OMG! You look soo Rahida!!"
Sarah: "Thank you, girll!"

Fly Rail

In Theatre, the long line of handles and ropes, typically Stage Right or Left in the Upstage wingspace of a Theatre. The ropes- "purchase lines," control the up and down travel of scenery, lights, effects and equipment suspended in the air by a system of pulleys, cables, pipes, and counterweights.
This is where the Techies can be found during a Run Week, when on standby.

Actor1:"Who's that guy in all black dancing like a stripper on those big rope-things?"
Actor2:"The Techie? That's Seth. He operates the Fly Rail."
