If I had an image for question 1 in the first post, I'll be giving the answer away. If you meant in the answer key, I'll get flamed because I "took pictures" during the supposed "ban period". So yeah. Details-wise, you just need a keen eye for detail.
Answer key, obviously, and i mean put on ur gallery via PM.

Sorry but question 8 should involve multiple answers, not just Dhoby Ghaut.

I agree that this question is quite subjective in terms of the phrasing (As what mine answer was!)
Also, I dont think the title of the Art piece in Bartley is 160000 1-cent coins if you have cared to research in the nlb (Yes, it uses 16000 1 cent coins).

I only wanted one answer,not multiple answers!!!

Ya but the question has many answers, not the matter that you want how many answers. If you want only one answer include the statement "state one of them".

Jurong East MRT station
My answer: Jurong East MRT station

Its tell me that every angle of the station exterior is covered by the CCTVs.
Its Jurong East MRT Station, thanks to the cheap ass red roof.

Answers will be revealed on Sunday night 8pm!
1: Set 25
2: DT35 (33 stations with 2 skipped codes, DT4 and "DT21a")
3: Somewhere before Coney Island (PN4), right above Oasis (PE6)
4: CM, coz of JEMP
5: To reduce the wait time faced in the NSL as at any point of time, only 1 train can be in the Jurong East (Middle platform). By adding a new track & platform, they could jolly well increase the frequency of North South Line (As the maximum potential is hitting) and getting more trains into it. Along with the introduction of C151A trains, it is expected to increase the frequency rate by 15%.
6: No. Gali Batu Depot is an at-grade depot.
7: Huh? The press have not even released officially. But it is widely expected Changi Point and Marina Barrage will be the terminus for ERL, and possibly, there are chances to have an ERL extension (3 station extension, with the other one in Katong areas) starting from Marine Parade to Paya Lebar Circle Middle platform.
8: Not yet. Wait for 2011 as now it is under LTA.
9: Downtown Line (9 interchanges, including Rochor) – Pai she I misread the question earlier.
10: Most likely not. Because Nicoll Highway was planned to interchange with Bukit Timah line (Now DTL Stage 2) where the way / direction it comes from will looked much like a T-Shaped style, and hence, a Rochor style might be better for Nicoll Highway. There might have provisions for Kallang Line (Middle track from Ang Mo Kio, and extends beyond Kallang to Marina areas) where that might more likely to be cross platform interchange, but due to the train size (NSL is 6 train car, so Kallang Line has to be so and CCL is 3 train car), most likely neither would it be a cross platform interchange, despite the tunnel direction is more feasible when compared to Bukit Timah Line. (Yes, according to 1996 LTA whitepaper, Lavender and Nicoll Highway are 2 of the interchange stations.). It would be interesting to see that Promenade is a cross platform interchange.
11: 215 / 226.

No, I think you rather say:
Despite SMRT's security is very tight as can be seen from the image that there are many cameras with different view for each camera, but freak incidents like Graffti Trains and Supermarket Trolley Incident can still happen, it proves that Security can never be so tight that no water could leak out of it.
