In regards to the CSX tracks, I'm not sure I understand why everyone thinks they're a problem. You know, they had to move those tracks to build the Metro in the first place.

It's simple. First, you build a new CSX track on one side, attach it to the track-to-be-removed at each end. Second, you remove the old CSX track. Third, you build a new Metro track adjacent to the new CSX track. Fourth you remove the old Metro track. Fifth you build the station.

Et voila.

I agree that it wouldn't be as easy as it would if the CSX tracks were off on one side, but it's not an impossible undertaking.
