English: WJY 758 is a Leyland Atlantean with Metro-Cammell body. It was new to Plymouth City Transport in 1962 and given their number 158. Along with sister vehicles 159 (WJY 759) and 160 (WJY 760) it was converted to open top in April 1975 for summer services, later being named Plymouth Adventurer and receiving a yellow and white livery. In 1978 it was renumbered 458 to free up fleet numbers for new Atlanteans being delivered. In its latter years at Plymouth it wore a special livery promoting local attractions. It was withdrawn in July 1991 and sold for further use at Scarborough, Whitby and York. In 2003 it was preserved by the Keighley Bus Museum Trust who operated as Keighley Corporation number 59. It was sold in 2009 to the Plymouth City Transport Preservation Group who intend to to restore it to its Plymouth Adventurer identity in time for its 50th anniversary.
