Missing numberboard, so it probably was out of service. I am just curious about the outcome of the experiment. Date: 04/06/19 15:29 Re: NS 999 battery powered locomotive status? Author: NSDash9 The 999 remains stored at Roanoke, VA. The experiment was a failure.

I wonder why NS doesn't scrap it. Saving it for the next experiment (publicity stunt)? I knew the first go round was an utter failure leading to a second try. I guess V 2.0 did not do much better.
