VERY nice. Wonder what was providing the steam for the steam heat on the cars.

Directly in front of the CNW 440 business car is the GN #90. See the attached link (courtesy of MCRM's website). This car provides the steam heat.

Used to see these in commuter service on the EL. Attached is a shot from May of 1975 at Ridgewood, NJ.
Great to see the images you posted.
