I should add that B4C had 2 diff’t Troopers assigned, during the service life. So it had 2 diff’t plate numbers while in service . One at the beginning of the service run, and a different one at the end of the service run.

I’ll look through paperwork I scanned to save before selling it. Possibly I’ll find something to help with other questions.

Mike, sometimes the right answer is the most likely scenario. Since the license plate numbers stayed with the Trooper, the UHP unit numbers would have to remain constant. So the 3 digit unit numbers were most likely sequentially assigned as the car was put into service. Do you know of any FB groups that might be able to confirm the meaning on the UHP unit numbers?

I’d suggest the State Troopers Plates website and Facebook group.
