https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/334369410571?hash=item4dd9f84e0b:g:El0AAOSwGxpiNGMI

this one £8 for non geared. 

As good as drop in replacements - on middle idler set on power bogie I used a gear puller to remove wheel and extract axle, then used knife to cut slot so wheel set a light force fit into axle hole. 

trailer wheel are live axle and one bushed wheel - just need to ensure correct fit. 

A bit of white grease on bearings and gears fine to go. 

Ok it is still a lima model with a pancake motor but it gives a quick and for around £30 a new lease of life over a arm and leg / organ sale priced MM201 ( they are lovely... of course and thee is always the Limna 201 for £279 on ebay ....
