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.
