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.
