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.
