This is the second recall of Thomas the Train wooden railway toys we’ve participated in this year. Our recalled items this time are “Toad” car with brake lever, the green maple tree top, and the green signal base. I’m not too fussed about it since The Bean is too old to chew toys, but might as well be safe. Plus, they send you an extra train unit for your trouble in packing stuff up and sending them back. Guess which unit they sent us as a gift for participating in the first recall, earlier this summer?

“Toad” car with brake lever. Can’t wait to see how soon the next gift is recalled.

  1. Do they reimburse you for your aggravation? Packing up and shipping something is why I sold vintage Barbies at a yard sale instead of of e-bay. (They were abused vintage Barbies. I’m not completely stupid and lazy, though that’s a possibility.)

    Glad the Bean didn’t ingest any paint, pesticide or whatever the taint du jour.
