I was so thrilled setting up the Santa's Express I bought this year pulling the toys, reindeer and Christmas 2016 wagon around a tree in my folks conservatory... until I realised probably my clumsy mother turned the tree lights on, knocked over the train and a candy cane from each truck load of toys has snapped off! Obviously the tiled floor was most likely the problem but I'm now having to fork out money on eBay for the 2 different toy load patterns on the 2016 Christmas wagon and the 2016 Santa's Express north pole wagon as the colours differ. Has anymore had issues with the candy canes before or other parts of the toy loads being damaged? Does superglue do a job or does it just not look right (hence why I'm already making plans on being replacement toy wagons). Hornby really should consider selling the toy load as an accessory so consumers can perhaps place them in other trucks. Like those nice Hamley's toy shop trucks I've seen on eBay. I'm pretty sure the annual toy load patterns haven't changed year on year but the Santa's Express toy load this year is just plain colours Whereas that used to be similar in detail to the annual Christmas wagons.
