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.
