A. Maybe a scrap company would remove them for free to get the scrap; a plan to look at when the price of steel is high.
B. Might be cheaper to paint them than to remove them if I am way out of line in my guess at the cost vs. scrap value.
C. They are probably mostly still perfectly usable for streetlights or whatever (of course, so are the existing street light poles).
D. The writer is blowing the poles out of all proportion. The community has endured them for 30 years (which I guess in 1910 was --- since five years before the line was suspended?)? Enduring? Most people probably barely notice them once the wire was gone. Enduring rails in the pavement I can see. Enduring some poles with signs in a city neighborhood? Please.
