The supplied ending to Mark's gospel seems to cover all the bases of the resurrection appearances, but for one thing

Codex Vaticanus has Mark end with 16:8
It has an appearance of the risen Jesus to Mary Magdalene (16:9), an appearance to the two traveling, presumably on the road to Emmaus as in Luke (16:12), and to the eleven disciples who are all together at a meal (16:14), but it is completely lacking an appearance to the disciples and Peter in Galilee predicted by the angel in the first place!

But go your way, tell his disciples and Peter that he goeth before you into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said unto you.

-- Mark 16:7
