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.
