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.
