Fair question but while the warmth in the wires, if enough, would prevent ice from adhering it wouldn't stop icicles from growing downwards from the ceiling to the wire. Add some leached cement chemicals or some brake dust and the icicles will arc over. Space heating while the trains are pushing in cold air would be like trying to warm your house on a windy day with the doors and windows wide open.
