I've been using Rail-Zip since I was a kid and it works extremely well for both rails and wheels. As far as I know it's just automotive brake fluid, but I'm not completely certain. Also give this a read.
Zap CA is the best glue I've found so far. Really runny so a single drop will wick its way up and down the wire. Clean to use and easy to remove too with just a utility knife if you don't have an acetone tube handy.

This shit. I have a few tubes and I've heard it's possible to get high off of sniffing it, but I'd rather use it for its intended purpose.
Slo-zap glue gives me my best results when gluing heavy things together or attaching people to bases. It worked for all 125 members of my green tide!

I use Bob Smith Industries Super Gold + Works well for me.

you could seal it with silicone, but i would suggest using something stronger.
I would personally fuse the crack shut first with something like this but of course don't use it for a week or so and clean it quite well after sealing the crack shut.
(I am not an expert though, I have glued and fused a lot of plastics together in the past)
They should have it at any place that sells plastic model kits, though that is a shrinking market these days so it may be down to a hobby store or just ordering online at this point.
This is the stuff, though I only paid 2$ or so at a local store.
I used to create something like this as a kid using zap glue and spraying way too much zip kicker on it. It comes out pure white like styrofoam. Be careful because it is exothermic. Gave myself quite a burn once doing it. Not a scientist and not sure exactly how safe it is. The volume will also be way less than a can of Great Stuff, but maybe an idea?
