The angle of the train + highway overpasses is almost a perfect match in this spot. Roofline of the buildings matches current day as well. The only thing different is that the first of the giant windows visible on the farther building is no longer there. In modern time it looks like the first two of the three buildings have had the back panel reconstructed at some point with smaller windows.
