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.
