  -Updated repost-

  Quiz: 

  There are these nine svcs, A - I. 

  Svc A (124) "replaced" a non-basic service (Parks 409) upon extension. It however turns towards the opposite direction when exiting the Int unlike the non-basic service. It meets with svc B - D somewhere along it route.

  Svc B shares an interchange with another service here. It plies the same expressway svc D would take, and would meet for a minor distance on the expressway. It meets with four other svcs somewhere along its route (one being svc D). 

  
  

  Svc C (174/e)'s Fast Forward svc is the only of its kind that runs one of its express sectors not on the expressway, but directly next to the expressway itself. It shares a terminus with svc E here. It meets with all other but two svcs here. 

  
  

  Svc D (Express 518) is known as the "sightseeing route" in the heartland it served as it plied the city and a full view of Marina Bay. It meets with four other services here. 

  
  

  Svc E (180) shares a terminus with svc C. It is a loop svc. Its looping point is around the terminating point of another svc here (Svc I, 184). It meets with two other svcs here (one being svc C). 

  
  

  Svc F (87) runs together with svc H from the first stop after it came out from the interchange all the way until svc H turns into its terminus. This svc was involved in a fatal accident which cost a bus. It meets with only svc H throughout its route. 

  
  

  Svc G (852) runs from SMRT territory into non-SMRT territory, and back to SMRT territory again. However it is not a loop svc. In other words it goes from A to "foreign land" and terminate at B. It meets with three other svcs here. 

  
  

  Svc H (89) shares a similar trait with another svc here(174, both adopt the Fast Forward scheme). From the int it runs together with svc F until F turns into its terminus. Then it continues on and meet svc D, before separating with svc D and passing by svc D's terminus, however not meeting svc D. It meets with these two svcs throughout its route. 

  
  

  Svc I (184) plies a polytechnic. It loops at a place where SMRT trains serves, and is an SMRT svc. It meets with three other svcs here. 

  
  

  Question: Identify svc B.

  actually, technically they never really meet on PIE mah... sv857 was on the slip road on pie before going to CTE (AMK), while 518 was on the slip road (flyover) on pie to CTE (AYE).

  ANSWERS:

  There are these nine svcs, A - I. 

  Svc A (124) "replaced" a non-basic service (Parks 409) upon extension. It however turns towards the opposite direction when exiting the Int (HarbourFront Int) unlike the non-basic service. It meets with svc B - D somewhere along it route (Bras Basah).

  Svc B (857) shares an interchange (Yishun Bus Interchange) with another service here (852). It plies the same expressway (PIE, CTE) svc D would take, but does not meet on any of the expressway (confused with the map directions, so my very original statement was correct). It meets with four other svcs (124, 174/e, 518, 852) somewhere along its route (124, 174/e, 518: Bras Basah, 852: Yishun Int)

  
  

  Svc C (174/e)'s Fast Forward svc is the only of its kind that runs one of its express sectors not on the expressway, but directly next to the expressway itself (Jurong Rd, next to PIE). It shares a terminus (Boon Lay Bus Interchange) with svc E here. It meets with all other but two svcs (87, 89) here. 

  
  

  Svc D (Express 518) is known as the "sightseeing route" in the heartland it served as it plied the city and a full view of Marina Bay. It meets with five other services here (87 (just remembered sorry), 89, 124, 174/e, 857).

  
  

  Svc E (180) shares a terminus (Boon Lay Bus Interchange) with svc C. It is a loop svc. Its looping point (Jelebu Rd) is around the terminating point (Bukit Panjang Bus Interchange) of another svc here (184). It meets with two other svcs here (174/e, 184). 

  
  

  Svc F (87) runs together with svc H from the first stop after it came out from the interchange (Sengkang Bus Interchange) all the way until svc H turns into its terminus (Hougang Central Bus Interchange). This svc was involved in a fatal accident (July 2010, Bedok North Rd) which cost a bus (SBS9400X). It meets with only svc H throughout its route. 

  
  

  Svc G (852) runs from SMRT territory (Bukit Batok) into non-SMRT territory (Bukit Timah/Thomson), and back to SMRT territory (Yishun) again. However it is not a loop svc. In other words it goes from A to "foreign land" and terminate at B. It meets with three other svcs here (174/e, 184, 857). 

  
  

  Svc H (89) shares a similar trait with another svc here (174, both adopt the Fast Forward scheme). From the int (Hougang Central Bus Interchange) it runs together with svc F until F turns into its terminus (Sengkang Bus Interchange). Then it continues on and meet svc D, before separating with svc D and passing by svc D's terminus (Pasir Ris Bus Interchange, however not meeting svc D. It meets with these two svcs throughout its route. 

  
  

  Svc I (184) plies a polytechnic (Ngee Ann Ploytechnic). It loops at a place (Clementi Bus Interchange) where SMRT trains serves (EW23, Clementi MRT station), and is an SMRT svc. It meets with three other svcs here (174/e, 180, 852).

  There are these 4 services A - D.
  Only Service B is single depot controlled
  Service A and B used to come from the same depot E. But was then amended to depot F which is same depot as C and D. Hence all four services were under same depot F until C and D shifted to depot G. 
  Services B and D are consecutive services.
  only A and D are WAB.
  All are SBST services
  
  Service C and D come from the same interchange. and exit at the same side, and both will travel together. At Avenue H, Service B joins in from Street I, and the 3 will travel for 1 stop. After the stop, they reach a traffic junction, where C will remain at Avenue H while B and D will proceed to Road J. Both service will travel together and bump into C at a traffic junction. this traffic junction is also where B will part from D. D will remain on Road K while B will turn and meet C at Road L near MRT station M and they will travel together until MRT Station N, where B will proceed to its nearby terminating point.
  
  Service A come from the same interchange as B, but they have nothing to do with each other. They travel together for a short distance then they will part and never meet. A will bump into C at its departure with B. But both services are going at different direction.
  
  Services C and D reunite at Road O, and both will travel and meet A at Road P. All 3 will travel together till they reach Q(name of road). Where D will part the 2 of them and proceed to its terminating point which is the same as A. However from Q onwards, D and A will not meet each other until their terminus.
  
  After passing by Q, A and C will travel together till they reach bus stop near Terminal R, both services will part and proceed to their respective terminating points.

  Agreed, I personally don't prefer turn-left-turn-right questions as there are many possibilities of left turns or right, and thus making the question nearly impossible to solve. 

  Thats why I cannot attempt your questions as I find it difficult to even analyse your question. Please indicate something significant about the service, or give a characteristic of it.

  actually this is easier then my previous one. previous one involves circuit Rd that part.
  
  alr mentioned B and D are consecutive. C and D exit at the same side of the int. only some int has 2 exits.

  A is a loop service that makes a U turn at Road M.

  A intercepts B at every bus stop along Road M that B plies on.

  C is a service that intercepts B at two different points for 2 stops.

  D is a service that starts out with C.

  Both of them intercepts each other for many bus stops from the start till they hit O, a medical institution, where they branch out on their own.

  However, D will intercept with C for 2 another bus stops again before going on and terminating at the same interchange as B, interchange P.

  E is a service that serves the west with the far west, adopting a jump bus system and only intercepting with F and G.

  F is a WAB service. F's majority control has a full ADD fleet on Weekdays. It intercepts G, H and I on Road N.

  G is the only service that ends at interchange Q with buses from depot R and the other services A-L except G do not terminate At Q.

  H is a service that has renowned crossovers, it also intercepts I on three different roads, S, T and U. H is known to intercept many of the services from A-L. Both ending points of H is not shared with any other service A-L.

  I is a service that meets with all services A-L except E.

  J is a service in which the direction of its route is somewhat like H. Ending point V of service J is non-boarding and alighting.

  K has the same ending point as J for one end and with G and I for the other. It passes by service J's ending point, V, too. K will intercepts F for 1 stop on 1 direction and 3 stops for the other at this area.

  L is a loop service that intercepts K at Road W that doubledecker cannot ply through. It intercepts H, I and J for 1 stop at its looping point.

  Find Services A-L, Roads M, N, S, T, U, W. Medical Insitution O, Interchange P, Q, Depot R, Ending Point V.

  There are these 4 services A - D.
  Only Service 9 is single depot controlled
  Service 33 and 9 used to come from the HGDEP. But was then amended to BNDEP which is same depot as 31 and 10. Hence all four services were under BNDEP until 31 and 10 shifted to CGBP. 
  9 and 10 are consecutive services.
  only A and D are WAB.
  All are SBST services
  
  Service 31 and 10 come from the same interchange. and exit at the same side, and both will travel together. At Simei Ave, Service 9 joins in from Simei St 3 and the 3 will travel for 1 stop. After the stop, they reach a traffic junction, where 31 will remain at Simei Ave while 9 and 10 will proceed to Upp Changi Rd. Both service will travel together and bump into 31 at a traffic junction. this traffic junction is also where 9 will part from 10. 10 will remain on Bedok Rd while 9 will turn and meet 31 at New Upp Changi Rd near Tanah Merah MRT station and they will travel together until Bedok MRT Station, where 9 will proceed to its nearby terminating point.
  
  Service 33 come from the same interchange as 9, but they have nothing to do with each other. They travel together for a short distance then they will part and never meet. 33 will bump into 31 at its departure with 9. But both services are going at different direction.
  
  Services 31 and 10 reunite at (actually looking for Mountbatten Rd), and both will travel and meet 33 at Dunman Rd All 3 will travel together till they reach Nicoll Highway. Where 10 will part the 2 of them and proceed to its terminating point which is the same as 33. However from Nicoll Highway onwards, 10 and 33 will not meet each other until their terminus.
  
  After passing by Nicoll Highway, 33 and 31 will travel together till they reach bus stop near Geylang Lor 1 Terminal , both services will part and proceed to their respective terminating points.

  There are these 2 services A and B.
  Both service used to be dual depot controlled by the same depots. until B was amended to be single depot controlled.
  
  Services A and B come from the same interchange(interchange C), and exit at the same exit. However immedately after exiting, both services will split. and will meet back at a bus stop near interchange D. Both services will travel together for 2 stops and B will part with A. Both services will proceeed to their respective interchanges.
  A's interchange is in the east.
  
  What are Services A and B, and interchanges C and D?
