WASHINGTON (Reuters) - About 15,000 Chinese-made metal toy wagons sold at Tractor Supply Co stores are being recalled because the surface paint contains excessive levels of lead, the U.S. Consumer and Product Safety Commission said on Thursday.

The wagons from Tricam Industries Inc of Eden Prairie, Minnesota, contain the model number MH1250 and were sold from September 2002 through November 2007 for about $30.

No injuries have been reported from the recalled wagons, the CPSC said.

The agency said consumers should contract Tricam at (800) 867-6763 for instructions on how to return the wagon and get a refund.
