The Albion Talisman TA was a front-engined 6x4 dirt-road bus built by Albion Motors in 1959, with a 9.8 litre engine. Only five were built, all for Rhodesian Railways. It was a companion to the larger Royal Scot, an underfloor-engined 6x4 built the same year for South African Railways, and both belonged to the export bus business that Albion ran from its Scotstoun works in Glasgow, which sent buses to Asia, East Africa, Australia, India and South Africa while the company was owned by Leyland Motors.
