Also the date when a few TfWM Tenders are due for renewal, so we will see if anything changes on those.

We will also be introducing a new S16 service between Yardley (Swan) and Solihull.

Looks like 46 might be going to Yardley Wood with frequency increase back up to half hourly. As 41 is hourly still.
Presumably a few YW scanias freed up for it with the 20/27 being half hourly.

Possible, But maybe not.. It could still work that you arrive as a 41, Complete x2 46 and then hear out as a 41 3 hours after arriving as one?

Surprised it wasn't renumbered 59 to be honest.

Intrigued the one 17 is becoming 17H.

While you can understand, for example,  the WA 4 having branches off it to Merry Hill (4M) or Halesowen (4H), neither 17 runs near each other does it, so I wonder why the 'new' 17H wasn't numbered something else?

It doesn't really have much in common with the 58 in its current form.
Some of it was previously served by the 58 when it was BC ran.  Orriginally this S16 ran Fridays only, I think Igo used to use ring and ride minibuses. When the 58 changed, it became a 6 days a week service, which was not long after it passed to Claribels.

Stourbridge to Dudley 17 on the evenings just to operate between kford and Dudley only, I wonder if it'll operate on its own or interwork with other services?

I know why. And it's not rocket science either
