  52 is the only one that never had a single route change?  

  53 is the only one that turns left twice after exiting the interchange into st 14?

  59 is the only one that does not have a proper boarding booth at the interchange?

   

  By the way, you missed out 410.

   

  edit: oh wait its st 14 not 13...lol

  SBS svcs A, B, C and D all departs from the same interchange and all are able to connect to SBS svc Z at 3 different locations.

   

  Eg. A location means Bishan Interchange itself, or a bus stop outside/ opp the interchange.

  3. correct

  
  53 is the only service under Bishan Route Group that uses St 14 to get to Bishan Road.

  52: Bishan St 11  Bishan Road
  53: Bishan St 14  Bishan Road
  54: Bishan St 13  Bishan St 11  Bishan Road
  55: Bishan St 11  Bishan Road
  56: Bishan St 13  Bishan St 11  Bishan Road
  57: Bishan St 11  Bishan Road
  58: Bishan St 11  Bishan Road
  59: Bishan St 11  Bishan Road

  Anyway for SBS 0435E I guess probably it is the only perm DM OAC bus under SLBP 52; all other SLBP 52 buses are DM CAC. (Just a rough guess)

  811 is the only service that utilises the bus stop next to Yishun INT.
