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.
