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.
