The 127, 259 and 279 all covered Waltham Cross to Holloway Nag's Head in the 1960s, the 25 and 32 Victoria to Stratford for a while before that, the 161 and 161A Charlton Station to Chislehurst, the 38 and 38A Victoria to Leyton Bakers Arms excepting a short section in Hackney, the 256 and 257 Chingford Mount to Shoreditch, 7 and 7A East Acton to Bank. 36 and 36B were West Kilburn to Catford gyratory at various times at the whim of LT planners!
My personal favourite was the 21 and 182 Borough Station to Eltham Church, which had different running times (don't ask!) and meant if you opted for a 182 you might legitimately get overtaken by up to three 21s! Oh, almost forgot, on Sundays 122 and 122A Crystal Palace to Plumstead Wickham Lane.

The 176 and 185 have a long history of following each other between Camberwell and Forest Hill and at one point the 176 used to go to Lewisham in the same direction too.
There was also the 185A which used to operate on Saturday shopping hours which followed the 176 from the Elephant providing extra capacity when the 176 was curtailed to I think East Dulwich and relieved the 185 between Camberwell and Lewisham maintaining capacity between ED and Forest Hill.
