Missing the bus

At a bus station I hear a driver say that he is going to be driving a new bus the next day.

The next day I am at the bus station again. The journey I am planning to take is long but buses seem to leave quite regularly to my destination so I don't see any urgency. I let two go. The next one is the new bus with the driver I saw the day before. I'm in line to get on board but I don't have my fare ready so I stand aside to let others board. The bus fills up and leaves.
