Lead contamination recall of Thomas & Friends wooden trains
RC2 recalled approximately 1.5 million Thomas & Friends wooden toy trains after the products were found to contain excessive amounts of lead. The affected toys had been manufactured in China, where most of RC2’s products were made at the time. The recall became the company’s most significant documented product-safety controversy.
