	Passenger car - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		However, railroad crews and passengers quickly discovered that when these windows were opened on a passenger train pulled by one or steam locomotives, smoke and soot from the locomotives tended to drift in through the windows, especially when the train went through a tunnel.
		As passenger car construction improved to the point where dome cars were introduced, some passenger car manufacturers began building double decker passenger cars for use in areas that are more heavily populated or to carry more passengers over a long distance while using fewer cars (such as Amtrak's Superliner cars).
		On some dome cars, the lower portion was built as a galley, where car attendants used dumbwaiters to transfer items between the galley and a dining area in the dome portion of the car.

		Therefore, producing reliable HVAC systems and temperature control for railroad passenger cars is not quite a simple as it might first appear to be.
