At 170m long, "Florence" is the largest ever tunnelling machine to be used on a UK rail project.
The largest tunnelling machine ever used on a UK rail project is officially starting work.

Florence - named after Florence Nightingale - will spend the next three-and-a-half years cutting through the chalk beneath the Chiltern hills in Buckinghamshire.

The tunnel will form part of controversial high-speed rail project HS2's first phase, which will link London with the West Midlands.

The BBC takes a look inside the operation to see how it works.
