The shield boring machine TRUDE, an acronym for Deep Down Under the Elbe, was the largest tunnel boring machine in the world at the time with an outer diameter of 14.20 meters. For the extension of the new Elbe Tunnel in Hamburg, a 2560-metre-long fourth tube was drilled under the riverbed of the Elbe between October 1997 and March 2000 using the shield tunnelling method. The tunnel boring machine, which weighed over 2000 tons, removed about 400,000 cubic meters of sand, debris and stones at an average speed of 6 meters per day.
