sncf231e posted:What is an obscure maker? I do not have an 0 gauge item from a manufacturer that is not on this list: http://www.binnsroad.co.uk/railways/oindex.html but I have items from some 300 makers.

Graeme's site is a wonderful reference. I started looking through it again, and was amused to see he had posted the auction pictures of my Walker-Fenn. This is one of the photos that shows how it looked when I bought it:
This is how it looks after doing a little bit of work to it:
Even though Walker-Fenn is listed on the Binn's Road website, I think it is relatively obscure - especially on this side of the Atlantic. Perhaps the postwar version - the Walker-Riemsdyk - is even more obscure.
I'll be interested to see what else is posted...
