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.
