Have to echo this, I'm not sure why they'd want to buy them especially with the 306 which is half alright. They're a bunch of weak routes which don't really have anything going for them.
Arriva Blyth and Ashington are the two depots which have the decent routes in Northumbria.
Jesmond has always been the weak point of Northumbria similar to Durham in North East and it's why usually they have the worst fleets. The reason why the depot isn't economical anymore pretty much.
