¨§¨§¨§¨§§¨ §¨§¨§¨§§¨§
¨§¨§¨§¨¨§¨ 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. §¨§¨§¨§§¨§
