The Nebraska Injury Law Report

Even Thomas the Tank Engine’s buddy James is having his problems.

The New York Times reports: “The toy maker RC2 Corporation pulled a number of its Thomas & Friends trains and accessory parts off the shelves yesterday after learning that the red and yellow paint used to decorate more than 1.5 million of the toys contained lead. The James Engine is . . . being recalled because the red and yellow paint used to decorate them contains lead. Lead, if ingested by children, can cause long-term neurological problems that affect learning and behavior.”
