Youtube: Railway extra: how to motorize the BR 89 by BlueBrixx

Even such a small locomotive as our BR 89 can be motorized. In this video we show you how it works! We use the current powered-up engine system that Lego has been using in its railway sets since 2018.

The middle wheel of the BR 89 cannot be attached to an engine block by normal means. Marco explains what radical solution to this problem a brick fan has found and documented. Here is the link to the english forum where the mounting of the center wheel is shown. (Implementation at your own risk!)
