Would the 73 not be a fairly high-profile example of this?


I can remember about 45 years ago my father taking me and my brother
to visit London for the first time and we stayed at the YMCA near
Tottenham Court Road. My brother and I had several bets as to whether
the next in each case of a seemingly incessant procession of RMs on
the 73 would be going to "Stoke Newington" or "Tottenham Garage".
