Flying Scotsman electric motor failed

Hello all. I have an old A3 Flying Scotsman with a failing throttle/reverser actuating electric motor, assembly part X9203. Does anyone know how to get a replacement or something similar to do the job?

I've had several locos where one or both magnets have lifted and jammed the rotor. I removed them and cleaned off the debris (think it was glue). Slid them back in and worked fine.

The frame is ferous so the magnet sticks to them without adhesive. Careful to maintain the polarity though.
