That was simular how my Disney went like! Motor runing, train slow, then justs stops, but motor is still going! Its was the rubber band that come off the main cog, (probably from stacking the boxes away after xmas or the kids helping the trains!) it was stopping because of bits of chewed rubber in the gear box…

*i found a blurry pic on ebay!

Have a look around the 3rd branch down, under the overhang of branch and snow you might see the glue or gap in the paint!

I've fixed the Disney one but now I'm trying to disassemble Winter Wonderland Snowman..

Any help would be appreciated!

I'm unsure if its glued onto the wooded base!

The Wonderful World of Disney with rotating sleigh..

After removing the top, this looks to be different from the picture! You have the metal rod with a plastic tip that holds the sleigh! I couldn't pull the end off, tried heating it, got pliers on it but looks well too super glued! And didn't want to break it, if it comes off for you great, follow the guide but you'll need to cut the wires and rejoin later as theres no connectors inside..

I finally took apart my, The Wonderful World of Disney, with the help from this guide and from the comments! Thanks alot. (More helpful than the company I brought it from!) I'll add some comments that might help others!

It was slow and sometimes the trains would stopped but the motor keeps going! Found out the rubber band came off the cog in the gearbox..

Its a little different, On this step i used an air dryer to carefully warm the glue and a thin knife to slowly go around it, its slow going at first then gets better, i didn't want to use saw because of the design..
