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.
