To me the building looks like it can be used as some of the switching/control towers on the LIRR , maybe other roads as well .

Useful model,  but just to be accurate it's been out for many years...

When I saw this post I thought that it was the kit I built decades ago, but then I realized that mine was a very similar structure, but made by Green Max.  Similar, but different.  Here are some photos of the Green Max version. It also had heavy solid plastic girder structure which I replaced with home-brew photo-etched girders. The fence was also replaced with Gold Medal etched fencing. But the building is pretty much unmodified.

Once you put these Japanese buildings in, did you notice any infestations of large lizards? :D
