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.
