Hello. while I was installing a current keeper i must have broken the red wire shown in the photo. I believe it needs to be soldered back where the pencil is pointing. Please advise.

If standard DCC colors, red goes to the right rail. Orange and gray go to the motor. What locomotive is it? Scale? I can't quite tell from the photo what's going on but usually there are two wires for pickups, two wires to the motor and then some lighting wires, a minimum of three, more if more than front and rear headlight. If you think it broke off there, can you solder it back on?
