Yes

PN - 129
WB - 50A/50C
Thanks for confirming tony. Will the 129 follow the 53 route at the merry Hill end?

Pensnett need more buses?

That'll depend on whether the PVR of the 129 is greater than the 53, assuming the 129 has the same 30 min frequency. The 53 looks like it needs 6 buses during the daytime.

53 being withdrawn
50A/50C bearwood circular replacing the 46 between west bromwich and londonderry,
129 continuing to merry hill centre

I'm presuming that the 50A/C also replaces the 53 between West Brom and Bearwood, as well as parts of the current 129/53 between Bearwood and Londonderry? And the 129 replaces the 53 between Bearwood and Merry Hill? I think this may have been suggested previously, so I'm sorry if I've missed out on details!
My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath

But is there such a need for the 129 to follow roads where the 141 goes especially at the merry hill end?

Fair play, is it going to interwork with anything?

Don't like/agree with the 129 route changes at all. Londonderry have lost two routes. The 50A/C could be useful though, I stand by what I said before, the 444 should have never been withdrawn
Class 153, 155 and 156. The Super Sprinters
"Around the corner" routes: 21, 89
Local routes: 12/A, 48/A
Semi-local routes: 54, 80, 87

Most used routes in bold

I gather this means pensnett are getting brand new buses that no other garage has and west brom are going to end up with more cast offs from everywhere else? :(
