It is! There was a great street car system in Hoboken, and it did run down Washington St. The only problem (for me) is that it was gone by 1959 when I am modeling. It would provide a great extra bit of fun if/when I back date the railroad, as Washington St does appear on my layout. David K Smith did a small (of course) layout as a representation of Jersey City railroading in the city that had an elevated streetcar, which was very cool...
That looks like a streetcar way off in the distance. I can just make out the tracks in the lower right.
