Yikes. Talk a out a Christmas downer. Every year I set up the trains. Every year I buy more trains. This thread is the first one to have me considering running what I have and culling anything that fails. I have no confidence that anyone would develop impose or monitor any minimum standard for metal purity in toy trains. If they did, companies would still cheat and the buyer would have no recourse, especially since..... heck, they are all slowly going out of business anyway.
