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.
