 The 54a will be doing part of the current diamond 55 route between the Queens Head and the George

Busboy105

So is the 55 being withdrawn and  replaced by the 54A?

The 55 is being completely withdrawn and as far as I know the 54a is only covering the Queens Head to The George.
The 54a will run from West Brom the same as the 54, when we get to Thimblemill Road the 54 will turn up William Road whilst the 54a will continue straight up to the Queens Head

No mention of it so i'd take it as the Sunday service is being axed.

The Sunday service on this route is completely withdrawn, with no replacement.

Stu

Ah, I found it, looks like a 'formatting' error on this page:

Quote27 Maypole - Harborne

    The terminus will no longer operate from High Street, Green Man
    A new terminus will operate from outside Waitrose, Vivian Road
    Minor alterations to timetables
    36 Heartlands Hospital - Tyseley - Acocks Green - Sparkhill
    This service will not be operated by National Express West Midlands from 27th October 2019 due to the end of the contract
    Customers should check the Network West Midlands website for more information

It's referring to the 36 service no longer being operated by NX, not the 27.
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
