There are quite a few parts suppliers on line. I'm sorry to say that I know of none that fulfill your other requirement.
If this is what you are wanting. Your best bet would be to purchase reproduction Lionel Service Manuals. These contain drawings with brief descriptions and part numbers. Then you can place your order with your favorite supplier. Better dig deep, these manuals are not cheap.
