#@&%§/~,¨¨ 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 ¨¨¨¨,~/§%&
