¨&¨¨¨¨&¨¨¨ 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 ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨&
