Are railway tracks parallel to each other True or false?

For example: In three dimensional geometry, skew lines are two lines that do not intersect and are not parallel. As we know that trains' widths are always constant so the pair of rails on the railway tracks always have a specific width throughout, that's why a pair of railway tracks are always parallel to each other.

Gapless railroads have their joints welded together to reduce noise. The lack of a gap between rail sections also reduces wear on both the track and the wheels. However, because the weld essentially produces one very long track, the individual sections have no room to expand as they get warm on hot days.

A crossover is a pair of switches that connects two parallel rail tracks, allowing a train on one track to cross over to the other. Like the switches themselves, crossovers can be described as either facing or trailing.
