Wouldn't surprise me given the traffic and timekeeping issues in North Tyneside if both Arriva & GNE ended up running all of the 306-309 jointly with an interworking pattern like the following........
From Blyth:
- 308 > 307 > 307 > 308
- 309 > 306 > 306 > 308
Maybe Arriva pick up the earlier / later runs to and from Blyth and likewise, GNE picking up the early morning runs towards the coast
