It hasn't been long since I went to 165th Street Terminal, but things are changing in a BIG hurry in Queens. Things started off slow, but finished off fast and furious. In this vid, you'll see buses from MTA New York City Transit, MTA Bus Company and Nassau Inter-County Express all coming and going from the 165th Street Bus Terminal. ‪@Techno-ov5ss‬ was also there on this day.
Except for the first 3 minutes, and last clip at 168th Street and Hillside Avenue, the entire video takes place at the 165th Street Bus Terminal, near Jamaica Center.

NOTES:
With the 2022 Novabus LFS's starting to arrive at Jamaica Depot, expect some XD40s to be transferred to other depots soon.
Queens Village is now down to 15 OGs, and this video of #6864 may have been my last video of an NYCTA OG.
Starting next week, the N22X Express returns after a 2 year absence due to the Pandemic.
