  Hope I get some guesses... :

  
  

  You are given four SBST svcs, svcs A-D. 

  
  

  Svc A is a svc in the shape of a flipped "L" if you plot the route on the map of Singapore. It passes through* two Xin Wang Cafés. It also passes through the only MRT station which has the barriers and metal platforms at one of its exits (on street level).

  This svc meets with svc B at one of its interchanges, interchange E, and after the interchange these two svcs do not meet at any other bus stops. Svc B passes through two Wendy's outlets. It also stops at the same stops with two svcs, svc C and D, which both terminates at a same interchange, interchange F near a famous island of Singapore. 

  Three of these svcs share a same depot, depot G. Coincidentally the svc which does not share the depot Is the only non-WAB svc among all the four svcs. 

  
  

  Question: 

  1. Identify the four svc.

  2. Identify the MRT station. 

  3. Identify the two interchanges.

  4. Identify the two Xin Wang Cafés.

  5. Identify the two Wendy's outlets.

  6a. Identify which three svc share the same depot, and

  6b. hence, identify the non-WAB svc.

  7. Identify the road and avenue that svc B meet with svc C and D respectively.

  8. Identify the famous island.

  
  

  *For the Xin Wang Cafés, passing through them need not be stopping at/passing through them, but instead be able to see them (or the shopping mall(s) that they are in) from the bus along the journey.

  I will give a quiz about bus services in the Marina Centre/Suntec area.

  A is a service which plies Suntec City and then the bus stop along Raffles Boulevard together with the other bus services that terminated at the Marina Centre Terminal. On its return journey, it plied Suntec City again.

  B is a service where it plied Suntec City using Temasek Avenue and Temasek Boulevard in both directions, to and from its destination.

  C is a service which does not ply Raffles Avenue or Temasek Avenue but plied the other two roads in the Marina Centre/Suntec City.

  D (a withdrawn service) loop at Suntec City via the route of B from its destination. Its route also duplicates B except that it did not call Temasek Boulevard and Temasek Avenue to and from Raffles Avenue.
  
  E is a service which terminates at the bus stop which was the last bus stop A calls in Suntec City for an entire journey.

  Guess the services for these questions.

  Your C is correct.

  Your answers for A and B should be the other way round (meaning A is 36 and B is 97).
  
  When your B is wrong it affects your answer for D. 501 never duplicate with 36 at all.

  The quiz needs to be simpler to evoke more responses... Too many unknowns.
