Here is the cover for "Little Polar Bear, Take Me Home", part of a book series by Hans DeBeer. What I find interesting is the telegraph poles on the left side of the train tracks. Interesting designs, not sure if any real life telephone/telegraph lines use that design.

Also note there are no wires drawn on them.
