Recalled: My Little Train Classic Toy Trains

The Consumer Product Safet Commission announced today a voluntary recall of about 18,000 "My Little Train Classics Toy Trains."

The trains were recalled because they "contain small parts which can detach, posing a choking hazard to young children," according to the CPSC. No injuries have been reported.

The details of the recall from the CPSC

  • My Little Train Classics wooden toy trains are available in two styles. One, with a yellow cab, blue body and six red wheels and the other with a blue cab, red boiler, wooden base and four black wheels.
  • The item #5293 is the same for both styles and is located in the lower left hand corner on the front of the package.
  • Sold at various wholesalers and retailers nationwide from March 2007 through October 2008 for about $2.
  • They were  made in China and imported by JA-RU.

The CPSC says if you have one of these trains, take it back to the store you bought it for a full refund.

For more info: Contact JA-RU at (800) 231-3470 between 8:30 a.m. and 4 p.m. ET Monday through Friday.
