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.
