I don't know how appropriate for cars, but nee refers to the birth of a
person. For example Mrs. Helen Jones might have been nee Helen Smith. So
in this case, it would mean that the car was built as SP&S 559 and later
became AMT 9486.

HI all,
I have a question that has bugged me for a long time. Whenever a renumbering
has taken place, you will often see a reference to the former history with
the annotation of 'nee' (e.g. dome-coach (ex-AMT 9486, nee-SP&S 559) ). This
issue surfaced again as I was browsing through bellsouthpwp.net passenger car
site. In all my years of reading railroad materials, I have yet to see this
term defined.
What does 'nee' mean?
Thanks,
Val
