What motor for a narrow gauge diesel

I am building a narrow gauge diesel outline battery loco. I think I need about 1.5kw (2hp) motor. Please some advice on which makes or models off motor to go for. And is 12v or 24v the better option? I have been advised that motors designed for mobility scooters, golf buggies etc are good?
