[Animatrix - Detective's Story] How is Trinity able to show up in a story set decades earlier than the events of Neo's arrival?

I'm not sure exactly what time the events of Detective's Story take place but it's safe to say it's at least three or four decades in the past. 

So how does Trinity show up in a totally different time period?

The simulation is just set during a different time period. Just like Neo thought it was 1999 but it is really closer 2199, the detective was set in the 1930 or thereabouts even though in the outside world it's still 2199. Trinity is still on the Nebuchadnezzar hacking into the simulation.  


Different servers of the matrix are set at different times.
