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.
