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.
