During the winter months in Canada most passenger trains were heated by steam which was provided by steam locomotives.When diesels started replacing steam locomotives on passenger assignments it created a need for a new source of generating heat.Locomotive manufactures did develop diesel locomotives that had steam generators such as General Motors FP9A and Canadian Locomotive Works C liners but the majority of the road's diesel roster were not equipped with a heat generating source---a Steam Generating Car was created to meet this need.Here's a shot of a typical passenger power consist which included one of these cars
