If the books are correct, the bridge had BOTH 3rd rail and wire. Key System ran off 3rd rail; SP & SN from the wire which was a higher voltage than the rail. SP & SN didn't last long (gone within a year or so after opening), so the wire didn't last long, but for some reason Key kept using the 3rd rail (with east end changeover to wire) until the end.
