#%^^-^,,,, 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 ,,,,^-^^%#
