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.
