Unless you can find surplus trucks from a brass loco, it's unlikely that you'll find those "Canadian-style" tender trucks. The closest I've seen are these Commonwealth-style trucks, also from Bachmann:

They can be purchased separately from Bachmann - specify that you also want the axle wipers and mounting hardware when you order.
The Proto tenders sometimes appear at one of my usual hobby shops, as used items. Even those with no tender pick-up can be can be relatively-easily so equipped, using the Bachmann trucks. I'll check on what's available next time I'm there.
