  I've just notice this today: There is no station number NS6.WHY???

  Sometimes they skip numbers for the train stations, to prepare for future stations in between long distance stations.
  Some examples:
  
  Kranji(NS7)---Yew Tee(NS5)
  Yishun(NS13)---Sembwang(NS11)
  Harbourfront(NE1)---Outram Park(NE3)
  
  Well, these are all i know that skip numbers. Hope u have a clearer idea now.

  NS12 should be Yishun Emerald.
  NS6 left out unless CCK is extending.
  NE2 for Kampong Bahru better.

  orange is nice man.......what abt the future bukit timah line? Brown? and the jurong region line? Neon green? I seriously think the LTA shud consider havin MRT to Sentosa. We could call it the sentosa line......let it be yellow in color.....it must be elevated when crossing the sea...then go underground....one station only...at the gateway area...then can have ticket booth at the sentosa station......yay

  Jurong Region Line is LRT so it will be grey.
  
  As for Sentosa, isn't there Sentosa Express already?

  Orange will be quite odd. I'd prefer blue.

  then only the line that serves Sentosa will have direct access. the rest will still need to transfer. doesn't make much diff.
