I would expect them to already have some kind of drainage system, so if the line has some connection to some line that goes outside, just pulling cargo trains full of ice down there and dumping them might work.
That said, a typical shitty single-hose monoblock air conditioner has 9000-12000 BTU/h of rated cooling capacity. 12000 BTU/h is also known as "one ton". Sometimes, stupid units can be helpful, because "one ton" of cooling is what you get if you dump one ton of ice (short ton, of course) per day in the place. So you'd need a lot of ice, many tons per station, to make a significant difference.
Either way, since this is such an obvious idea, and they had a competition to solicit solutions, I'm sure this was evaluated and discarded - although it would be interesting to read the official analysis of the idea and learn why it wouldn't work.
