In many of those cases the ‘M’ appears to be part of the founder’s name. So may be less cursed. 
 

It’s interesting that there was a previous ‘DJ Models Ltd’ though. 

Different sort of models however - that lot were in clothing retail.

Helped lock my post too merely pointing out this was on. I did chuckle when I saw it.

In terms of professional competency though, there are a good number of similarities between the subject of this thread and yours!

And what about the Western? Very much a Dave Jones project, and one of the finest OO RTR Diesel models ever.

 

It is a fine model, but it wasn't just due to DJ that it was produced, Being a Dapol product there were others involved that didn't claim the credit as he did.

There's no truth in the rumour linking the DJM collapse to that of Thomas Cook. 

There are, however, modellers and others in the railway fraternity who lost their jobs as a result of the collapse of Thomas Cook through no fault of their own. I know two guys who did. (CJL)

Very true and I'm aiming to be supportive of one of those in the trade affected.
