[Vocabulary] ‘to come along’ usage

[northpath]

An American acquaintance of mine said that the sentence
1. A bus should come along any minute now.
Sounds old-fashioned. Is it true?
And what about the sentence:
2. Your English is coming along really well.

They both sound fine to me and I don't detect any hint of "old-fashioned" in them.
