I noticed on the back of the boxes of the HO and N series train sets, the tracks and individual train cars that there was a small warning label.

It said that a chemical in the product was known to cause cancer, and birth defects and reproductive problems.

What particular chemical is it?  Is it because these things are made in China?

I have an old Sante Fe train set from at least 20 years ago and was thinking to buy a new train set, but after seeing that sticker I changed my mind.

Does anyone know what I am talking about.

Thanks,

Barry
