Märklin and Trix have started producing stuff in China - so read boxes carefully. Some Herpa cars are made in China. IHC and Model Power kits are made in Denmark, Germany, and sometimes Brazil. Heljan's kits are also Danish. Walther's kits seem to be made for them in Denmark by Heljan, or Germany, by Kibri. Hornby just bought Spanish manufacturer Electrotren, and plans to switch all manufacturing to China. Some Rivarossi is now made in China - the skeleton log cars, for example. And while some of IHC's freight and passenger cars are made in Slovenia by Mehano, some passenger cars are made in China. Stewart Models locomotives, are for th emost part, made in South Korea by Ajin. The EU does not require manufacturers to state the country of manufacture on products. They only have to display the CE logo that ensures they comply with certain standards. I prefer to buy products from countries that defend human rights, hold elections, allow for freedom of the press, etc. as well.
