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.
