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.
