Actually, Dr Wayne, there's a difference between Kadee and Accurail Andrews trucks. Here's a link to the Kadee version <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.walthers.com/exec/productinfo/380-509">http://www.walthers.com/exec/productinfo/380-509</a><!-- m --> and here's a link to the Accurail version <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.walthers.com/exec/productinfo/112-103">http://www.walthers.com/exec/productinfo/112-103</a><!-- m -->
The lower member beneath the journal on the Kadee style is angled to the rail, while the lower member on the Accurail is parallel to the rail. The Accurail model is very nice (though you do have to add metal wheels), but there are some prototypes where the Kadee is a better fit, including some of those QRL&P boxcars. The Kadee style was also very common on the SP.
