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.
