I would think railroads would be a bit tougher to destroy that a telephone post...

There is also what I sugested about hiring hunters to guard those kind of places.

If the railroads are electric, it should be easy to tell remotely when they get damaged and send a party to repair them. You are assuming they would use telephone posts and not have the phone lines underground. As Spirited pointed out, it is literally "cross-continental" so that does not say anything about the practicality of communication lines outside the Kingdoms. Given the only Kingdoms on the same continent are separate by a large section of Grimm territory, I presume it was impractical for them to build communication lines along there, but more due to the distances involved. There are some mountains as well, so that may make it harder.
