Title

[LB034150], Letter from Thomas Alva Edison to Noel B Amory, November 22nd, 1889

Editor's Notes

I have your letter of 13th instant, asking for my opinion as to the use of storage batteries in connection with electric railways, and in reply I beg to say that for this purpose I consider them an absolute failure. In addition, to their unreliability in operation, they have no commercial element, and they serve only the temporary purposes of speculation, the public being deceived by their apparent simplicity. Yours truly, [signed] TAE
