“Little People Railway” was probably too long to fit on the side and this was one of those infamous “Short Cuts” you hear about in the paper after the shiz has hit the fan.
I was curious to see if anyone else was bothered by the name. The Internet was all abuzz with praise for the construction of these, but nary a mention of the offensive name.
They are actually made in the USA, so I guess there’s one positive for them.
Scratch off the “M” and it gives it a whole new meaning.
This here is my blog where I talk about my feeeeelings. I'm Mom to Carson, 7, and Ella, 5. I'm Jennifer and wife to Tate. I like to run and eat nachos. Not at the same time, though. Duh.
Hmmmmm.
Well if Tonka can get away with their “Built for Boys!” campaign, what’s a little midget railway?

Hmmm…”Little Peole’s Railway.” Nope, that sounds too much life Fisher Price’s name…ummm…
“Vertically Challenged Railway.” Nope…too complex. Kids wouldn’t get the joke.
“Shrimp Railway.” Nah…sounds too yummy. Kids eat enough toys.
“Dwarf’s Railway.” Hmmm…that gives me image of that guy from LOTR…
