On Sunday 12th April 2015, members of the Albion Club and the Albion Foundation attended a presentation at the Glasgow Training group (GTG) premises of Arnold Clark on South Street, Glasgow.  This was the site of the Albion Motor Car Company works from 1903 until 1987.

The Albion Club Chairman, Maurice White in conjunction with Robert Fulton, grandson of Norman Fulton, co-founder of the Albion Motor Car Company, joined GTG Chairman Glen Gall to unveil a plaque to commemorate the location of the Albion works on the site.  Below are photographs from the occasion, including many Albion vehicles brought along by various proud owners, along with four of the Albion Foundation and Club vehicles.
