I wonder if this is why the KLine models had the motor output shaft rear facing.

Lionel Legacy K4s use the same motor setup as K Line.

However, I thought it was discussed previously.

That the extra gears is a Lionel design that Lionel engineered into the K Line chassis, and has since engineered into every other locomotive regardless of tooling. I believe the 2-10-10-2's have two of these gearboxes.

I guess we may even see some  "Legacy equpped" MTH locomotives in the future with extra gears as well.
