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.
