The 907 stop in Lower Bull Street in the City also shows 907A but there is no indication in the timetables what the 'A' represents. Is there a 907A running towards Sutton Coldfield?

Isn't it a peak time variant of the 907 or something like that?

On vosa 08 June 2013 changes

907A Birmungham-Steeetly (Hardwick Arms)

Might be starting 1 September 2013

Who knows?

Saw it on the timetable, can't be 100% but might be one that doesn't use all the underpasses i.e six ways Aston etc. (or a school variant)

So essentially a 113 but limited stop between Birmingham and Perry Barr. Sounds good  :)

The school workings (were at least) the 807

907A is just a morning peak 907 that stops at all stops between City and Perry Barr to pick up school children at College School

yes

Yeah the only difference in route is that the 907A doesn't use the flyovers and underpasses on the A34, no idea what the registration of the route to streetly was all about though

That was all about reintroducing the 113, that should never have been withdrawn in the first place.
Don't you start.

But it wasn't reintroduced in the end, which is what confused me

Agreed, was also useful for journeys from City to New Oscott for when the 907 (then 107) didn't show up.

Ah yes, I'd forgotten about the 42. 42, 107, 113 - what a random collection of numbers for the City - New Oscott services. A bit like 13, 24 and 38 along the Yarlwood Road.
