Filtering Engines by Feature

Doug Kinsman posted:

Kind of a strange question but is there a way to search for Lionel/MTH engines by feature? Like a database or mfg. webpage that allows me to filter on whistle steam, legacy control, canned motor(s), etc. and then see the products that have these features. I am sure it exists in some form or another but I just haven't seen it. Thanks, Doug

To help in your search, the term is not "canned motor", it is "can motor", sometimes "can-type motor".

And, I know of no database of the described nature. If you've been in this hobby as long as many (most?) of us, and have participated in its growth and evolution, you just sort of "know" (ball park) what features equipment has, based on its era, price and manufacturer. Which does not help you. You're welcome!
