This book is a collection of images of structures that ground-based modelers may need to recreate nostalgic Japanese landscapes.
While many books have been released on railcars, it is surprisingly difficult to find records of structures, or even nostalgic buildings and landscapes that remained in the late Showa and Heisei eras.
The scenery of station and the scenery from the station toward the city are changing day by day, and the buildings that were there just a few days ago have been demolished and replaced by new buildings.

The first issue of contains a lot of information from station buildings in the Kanto area to buildings and accessories that make up the cityscape, and includes illustrations based on actual measurements.

"As the subtitle indicates, the introduction is basically limited to buildings in the Kanto area. If we receive your kind support for this book, we would like to publish a sequel that summarizes other areas. Your continued support would be greatly appreciated. (Excerpt from the afterword)
