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.
