Missed connection: NYC bus driver seeks Fleet Week sailor who had ‘most beautiful smile’

Missed connection: NYC bus driver seeks sailor

NEW YORK — A New York City bus driver has missed her connection, and she’s hoping to learn his name before he sails away.

MTA bus driver Yvonne Farrington says she desperately wants to know the name of a sailor she met Friday near 42nd Street and 12th Avenue as she was relieving another driver.

Farrington says he had “the most beautiful smile I had ever seen.”

She says she even managed to ask the sailor to take a picture with her. But before she could get his name, her dispatcher told her to get back to work.

The city has welcomed hundreds of white-uniformed sailors for Fleet Week, which ends Wednesday.
