Whilst the QA is by no means perfect, if one operator didn't step in and restore a 7-8 minute service, a disjointed separate 10 minute service from each operator would be a worse deal for passengers especially on a corridor that justifies at least one 7-8 minute service or group of services.
On the website the picture headed "Whitley Bay beach" is actually the north end of Longsands beach in Tynemouth, looking onto Cullercoats, and the 309 doesn't go there!
