Steve, a friend of mine provided me with a large chunk of information about this, too voluminous to describe here
If you get back to me, I can forward you everything she collected on this

I remember the tons of copper wire still strung on multiarmed telegraph poles along the Fitchburg Div. Possibly these were involved in the harvest of this obsolete wire in the late 60s/early 70s(?). Not to mention all those pretty glass insulators...
