	I was under the  *impression*  that, in the latter days, the 12-line
was extended downtown only in the rush hours and was a shuttle at other
times.
	One of the videos, possibly TGM, shows a 12 line car on the North Side
or downtown with a temporary destination sign - black letters on white! 
And yes, double-ender!
