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.
