In the Railroad Reading Section, page 65, a RPO Clerk recounts his experience aboard The KC-Florida Special when it went on the ground at Mansfield, MO. A broken rail caused the wreck, which killed both enginemen and injured 22 others. The details are located in the ICC records. http://dotlibrary1.specialcollection.net/scripts/ws.dll?websearch&site=dot_railroads
