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.
