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.
