Thanks, I thought about the possibility of that set being in there, but
there doesn't seem to be any of the specialised chassis plates or sloped
bricks. Being that there aren't all that many obvious parts missing [and
that the instructions were still intact] I doubt there'd be too many parts
missing, and for the bus I'd need quite a few parts that weren't in the
collection.

As to the "O" and "3", I don't think they're italicised [though I don't have
anything to compare them to, either], but I do know that the letter O
printing is a different shade to the 3.

Benjamin, check the numbers 'O' and '3'. Are they slightly
italic? I seem to
remember getting this set and there is a difference in the typeface.

Also, if you had evidence of white framed classic windows you
might also have
parts for a London Bus which also featured 1x1 white numbered bricks.
