Plain-English summary
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and Janex Corporation announced a recall of the Musical Rock-A-Bye Railroad musical action crib and pull toy, Model No. 2010. The recall was initiated because small parts of the toy, including the ball, can break off, creating choking, aspiration, and ingestion hazards for infants and small children. The CPSC determined that the toy violates the Small Parts Requirement, which prohibits small parts in toys intended for children under three years of age.
Janex Corporation distributed approximately 50,000 of these toys from April through October 1982. The toy is a blue plastic train engine with pink and white wheels, a red and white smokestack, and a yellow bell. It is designed to be clamped to a crib rail or used as a pull toy. The recall specifically involves Model 2010 with the yellow bell; Model 2010-A, which lacks the bell, has been redesigned and is not part of this recall.
No incidents or injuries involving these specific toys have been reported to the CPSC. Consumers are advised to remove the toys from use immediately and contact Janex Corporation or the retail store where they were purchased to obtain a replacement. Retailers and distributors should contact the company to arrange for the destruction of and credit for products on hand.
