Think of dealing with the width of the road today if several sets of those tracks hadn't been removed.
Does anyone have an idea of what year the two extra sets of tracks were removed? I would guess around the 1930's...... Maybe postcards from the time would indicate an accurate date for track removal and road expansion.

Post number 1 from this thread with a 1933 image shows the three rails but I do not know when they were removed.
