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.
