all good advice already given, if it were me i'd file the rust off the end of the shaft and fill the thing with oil then walk away and let it soak. when you've got bored of waiting go back with a sledge and get the bogie to rotate around the axle by knocking it back and forth, once it starts to move it won't take long.
this is of course the brute force way of doing things and i'm sure there's others more elegant ways but i've always thought that "if in doubt give it a clout"

good luck with your endeavours.
