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.
