> I also rode the #12 local bus, which nowadays serves Grand Ave. in Oakland, and got a last-day transfer from that line, including "Route: 12." I wonder: Were the streetcars that once served Grand Ave. ever were designated #12? I'm not enough of a Key System expert to know.


Oaklandguy, I was hoping Key Route Ken would have answered your question for us. Ken, I hope you're OK.

The OB&E website has a map of Line 12: Grand Avenue - 16th Street Station: [www.oberail.org]

Bill Vandervoort's Chicago Transit and Railfan site has a page about Oakland Transit Routes. It shows Route 12 being Grand. [www.chicagorailfan.com]

Here are links to a photo of a Line 12 car in front of the Grand Lake Theatre: [www.oaklandarts.org], [oaklandhistory.tumblr.com]. Two links in case one goes away.
