Look in the HO universal parts section, there are 2 and 4 pin plugs (and others).  I am 99% they are the same ones.

If the wire broke and the metal connector is still inside the plug, you may be able to repair it.  It requires a bit of surgery, but the connector inserts into the plug and then gets latched by a tiny little plastic 'flap' that grabs the connector and holds it in place.  You can take a dental pick or similar tool and gently pry up the flap to release the connector.  Resolder the wire to the connector, being sure to not fill in the connector with solder, then reinsert it into the plastic plug housing.

I finally learned to not pull on the wires to disconnect the plug.  Use a small flat head screw driver to gently pry the connectors apart.  I've seen other people use the tip of an exacto blade to pierce the plastic of the plug and pull it up, but use caution with the sharp pointy bit

Thanks Tom,
i got the broken piece out, tried to solder to it but in the process i lost that tiny connector.
i dropped it twice and found it both times but the 3rd time i have no idea where it went.
i listed the part numbers in the post of the only 2 HO plugs that look like they may fit,
but they identify them as large or small.
ordering both at $9.14 each plus tax and shipping, then using only one of them is wasteful.
