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.
