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.
