hi,any input would much be appreciated.

first proplem I had train would power up fine all lights sounds bells etc.but wouldnot go around track under power.i took battery out (original battery about 6 years old +).took a 9 volt plan battery and then went around track fine.

now I replaced it with a new battery part #bg-4000005 color green.now I noticed I threw a rubber tire and it will not go around the track at all.    will one rubber tire cause this problem not to run around the track.it will move a little bit forward then stop.

thanks for any input

Sounds like binding, so another tire is off stuck in side frame, or grit in gearing.  With shell off you can rotate the flywheels by hand in both direction to see which is binding and to locate at what position.  Then closely inspect gears.  Anything in the recess can jam the tooth that needs to fit in the recess and lock motor up.  G
