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.
