Funny little motors these Albions Dave,they had the 4 potter engine underslung and set back under the chassis so I suppose they didn’t need a grille.Bridges Transport of Preston ran a lot both parcel van and flat models IIRC. Cheers Dennis.

Chris Webb:
And this was a smart motor in it’s day,AEC MK3 Mammoth Major TGU 387,3600 gall tank.
A E Evans bought this very motor and others like it secondhand.
A Graham Edge photo.
We had a few of those, great old motors, ratchet hand brake 
A mate was delivering fuel oil to Halifax swimming baths in the late 60’s, parked on a hill and somehow he’d left the handbake in the fully back position, jumps out to couple up to the storage tank, handbrake dropped forward, (they were a heavy bit of kit) , brakes came off and away it went, by itself, down the street. 
It did a lot of damage before a wall finally stopped it.
