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.
