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.
