Symphonies and Major/minor keys...?

Many symphonies - from about 1800 onwards - begin in a minor key and end in a major key. Mendelssohn's symphony No. 4 (The "Italian") is the only symphony I know which begins in a major key - A Major, and ends in A minor. I would be interested to know how many other major - minor symphonies you might be aware of. Thanks
