That is one of the three fastest choices. Still got one more.
-
1. did service 70 had all 3 type of MKIVs (excluding PSV SCs) at one time? what were the permers?
2. this company that had put up similar types of ads appear quite frequently. it appears for 1-3 months before the ad expires. recently a new but similar type of ad put up by the same company came up some time after the previous one had expired, not lasting 6 months. which company appears in this ad? -
either 969 > 171 > 190
23 > 966 > 190 or
168 > 187/963 > 190.
ALL depend on traffic conditions.
i've seen accidents so bad - the tailback can see 6 pairs of 161/168 on the SLE.

ALL depend on traffic conditions.All three correct. Should be around~ the same travel duration. But then again, depending on traffic conditions(due to hi-way).

o.O.
You mean just SLE alone or the stretch of TPE+SLE??? -
questions:
1) A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I are different kinds of bus service.A terminates at the central/north-eastern part of singapore and goes past an industrial area. B is a clementi service. C is a eunos service. D is a service that terminate at the northwestern side of singapore. E terminates in the northeastern side of singapore. F terminates at the CBD area. G terminates at a terminal with just 1 service. H terminates at the eastern side of singapore. I terminates somewhere.
A intersects/meets B & C at different places ( A & B intersect somewhere and meets each other until at cbd area, A & C intersect somewhere). B & F intersect/meets somewhere in the west. D & F intersect/meets somewhere. E intersect/meets H somewhere and both meets each other until it reaches a certain place. F intersect/meet H at a road which goes past an entrance of a MRT station. G intersect/meets B & C at the same place in the west. G and I intersect/meets somewhere near orchard area. name all the services. also name all the places/roads that the bus services intersect, meets at and terminates.
2a) by using D & F (letters not in order, you can mix the 2 letters around), you can subtract them to get another bus service number. does this bus service intersect/meet any bus services from A - I? where?
2b) what bus service number is derived from A + C - I? what service from B,D,E,F,G,H does this bus service intersect/meet (not including A, C & I)?

Your question is still not specific enough. I'm still able to give many alternatives. -
You are given 12 bus services - namely A thru L.
A terminates at a western Terminal and goes thru the CBD
B terminates at a western Terminal that is not the same as A, and goes thru the CBD as well
C terminates at Toa Payoh.
D is a pan-island service with extensive run time.
E is a very long route, serves many schools and once had the most models ever permenently deployed on a service.
F has a varient service.
240 G is a long feeder service
H used to operate from Somapah Interchange
I used to loop at Macpherson Estate
J terminates at an Interchange in the north
K has a famous Shortworking Trip, and terminates in the North-East
L terminates at an eastern Terminal
A, B, C, D run parallel to serve 3 pairs of bus stops somewhere within the Outer Ring Road System, but outside the CBD area. Of the 4 services, 3 will turn right while the 4th one turns left at this junction.A & B are identical in their routes as they meet and run parallel 3 times, one of which is mentioned in the earlier paragraph.
D & E operates from the same terminating point in the west. They serve one estate before branching out on their own routes to serve other parts towards the east.
F also serves the same estate as D & E but originate from a different terminating point. It serves a bus stop that is located in a vehicle park.
240 G serves 2 estates (Boon Lay and Taman Jurong), has a run time of about 55-60min full route on average.
H intersects E for 5 pairs of bus stops in this estate. H also intersects I and J at 2 different places.
I was extended to terminate at this place that has many jump bus services. It intersects H at a road that does not have DDs plying.
J has a crossover from another service in the morning. It runs parallel with L for a portion of J's express sector. It doesn't call the same stops as L though they share the same express sector. J meets H at a junction nearest to an MRT station. J meets I for 2 pairs of bus stop near a famous shopping centre that shares the same name of a healthcare company.
K has the downroute that is the reverse of its famous shortworking trip in the evening. 2 buses from this service does supplementary trips on 2 seperate services. K meets A & B at a road near an MRT station and a fire station. A & B will go straight while K turns left after meeting. Though they meet at this road, K & A/B do not call at any bus stops together.
L meets C and H for a pair of bus stops in a housing estate. Other than C, H and J, it does not meet any of the remaining services at all.
List the services that I'm talking about. Where possible, give answers to all the names and places I have said in the clues above.

36 is not the only service that has a bus stop in a vehicle park. Vehicle park can stand for any kind of vehicles that may park in it as long as there's lots catered for it.G is 240 :)
K is wrong. Its SWT 33A is in the evening and its reverse downroute is in the morning. 33A only 2 trips. This service has many SWT trips. Moreover 33 doesnt go North-East.
Originally posted by Fryderyk HPH:D is 196, E is 14.
Both are wrong though both originates from Clementi and both serve Dover estate before branching out. Moreover, 14 did not have the most perm models at one point. This service E i'm looking for had the most perm models recently and not currently.Originally posted by .SBS9888Y.:H is 10?
If H is 10 then what is E, I and J? Though 10 did serve Somapah before.Originally posted by Fryderyk HPH:I is 158?
Wrong. Though it was extended from Toa Payoh to Serangoon. Serangoon jump bus only got 82 100 101 as compared to 81 103 315 317, not counting 105 109 as its dual depot. In addition, I does jump bus itself. 158 doesn't.Hmm looks like I have gave G an isolated clue. If i add one more clue for G you guys would be able to guess some of the remaining ones cos G intersects a few of the remaining ones.

nope.. 156A operates in the morning and evening, while its downroute from Thomson Rd only operates in the evening. In addition, 156 does not have any buses that supplement other services. -
