Sucking Transformer        
                                    
         
                                          
 A  Type  Of  Transformer (An  Electrical 
   Component) Found Mainly Along Railway  
  Lines. They'Re Usually Mounted Halfway  
 Between  The  Rails  And   The  Overhead 
                Powerlines.               
                                          
 As  Far As  Transformers  Go, These  Are 
 Very  Big. Instead,  Not  As Many  Are 
     Needed. Among All Rail-Adjacent      
  Artifacts/Symbols, They Belong To The   
                Rarer Kind.               
                                          
         
                                          
 The   Railpeople  Are  In  General  Very 
    Secretive About Their Symbols And     
 Machines,   So   Also  With   The   This 
 Transformer. What  We  Know  Is  What We 
               Can Observe.               
                                          
 A  Sucking Transformer Is Surrounded  By 
 Two  Signs,  Both  Around   Twenty  Four 
 Meters  To Each Side Of  It.  Tranins Do 
 Not Stop Between  These Signs During Any 
 Circumstances  -  If   The   Choice   Is 
 Between Halting  Within, Or Running Into 
 Another Train Just  Outside, They Prefer 
                Colliding.                
                                          
 Water Avoids  Them.  In  Light Rain, The 
 Ground  Closest To  A  Transformer Stays 
 Dry.  A  Common  Sight  Is  A  Creek  Or 
   Stream Making A Half-Circle Detour.    
 Generally, Sucking Transformers Are Not  
 Placed  Near To Larger Bodies Of  Water. 
                                          
         
                                          
 Their Function For The Rail  Environment 
 Is  Poorly Understood. They Seem To Pull 
    In Stray Fields And Electricities.    
     Superstition Exist That They Also    
 Affect  Spirits,  Gijinkas, And Even The 
        Souls Of Living Creatures.
