Note the number board on the 413 with black letters on white back ground. The 413 was one of the units involved in the Mustang, Okla. head on collision which resulted in fatalities. I am fuzzy on the number as I may be confusing this wreck with the one at Olustee, Okla. in which four were killed. Someone here will know the correct number. I don’t know if it was official Frisco policy to reverse the number board lettering or if the mechanical forces did it on their own, but each unit on which this number board configuration was used, a fatality occurred.
