MTA Bus Company: 2001 MCI D4500 2204 On The QM42 At 62nd Drive & 98th Street (RE-UPLOADED)

DISCLAIMER: This video is not new. It's an old video of mine that I decided to re-upload for a reason. The reason why I re-uploaded it was because the view counts were corrupted on the original copy.
Seen here is a 2001 MCI D4500, numbered 2204, under the MTA and formerly under New York City Transit, operating on the QM42 Express bus route to East Midtown 55th Street via 3rd Avenue at 62nd Drive and 98th Street in Rego Park, Queens, NY making its way down to Queens Boulevard and on its way to East Midtown Manhattan in New York City, NY. Also seen in the video is a 2011 New Flyer C40LF, numbered 210, that was in operation on the Q38 bus route. This video was originally taken on Wednesday, March 27, 2019.
As many of you already know by now, all 2001-2002 MCI D4500s were retired by the summer of 2021, with 2910 being the last unit to run. This video of 2204 is now history.
