They ran on these replacement trucks for about 6 months until ASF made some new trucks for UTLX. THese were the 4'8" Andrews trucks with intregal journals, most of which went with the Narrow frame tanks to Alaska and came back with them.

To my understanding if the truck has integral cast journals it is not an Andrews truck. Andrews have a cast side frame that takes bolt-on journal boxes -- the same size and kind of journal boxes used on arch bar trucks.
