RUNnning Powershell commands in Docker image fails

I have this in my Dockerfile. 

FROM microsoft/dotnet:2.1-sdk-nanoserver-1803 AS build
WORKDIR /src 
...
SHELL ["powershell", "-Command", "$ErrorActionPreference = 'Stop'; $ProgressPreference = 'SilentlyContinue';"]
RUN Write-Output  'hello from ps'

I run docker build and get to this point in my dockerfile, then I get the error message below.

Step 8/24 : RUN Write-Output 'hello' ---> Running in ea5d79c5698c container ea5d7....5cb94f67 encountered an error during CreateProcess: failure in a Windows system call: The system cannot find the file specified.

Use curl instead 

RUN curl.exe -o node.zip https://nodejs.org/dist/v9.2.0/node-v9.2.0-win-x64.zip && \
  mkdir "C:\\Program Files\\node" && \
  tar.exe -xf node.zip -C "C:\\Program Files\\node" --strip-components=1
