,,~*%¤£#@# a type of transformer (an electrical #@#£¤%*~,,
,,,,,,,~%£ component) found mainly along railway £%~,,,,,,,
,,,,,*¤££# lines. they're usually mounted halfway #££¤*,,,,,

,,~*%¤£££# powerlines. #£££¤%*~,,

,,,,,~%£#@ as far as transformers go, these are @#£%~,,,,,
,,~*%¤£#@# ~very big~. instead, not as many are #@#£¤%*~,,

,,~*%¤£#@# artifacts/symbols, they belong to the #@#£¤%*~,,

,,,,,~%££@ 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 #@#£¤%*~,,
