Thanks. you got the money shot. congrats

Thank you!

Congratulations on getting the big shot everyone's been waiting for! Outstanding!

Talk about the money shot. That's amazing, moving directly from the factory floor into the shipping parking lot is going to save tons of time.

Great job!!

Thank you for a clear, concise and informational video. No Speculating, No Bloviating, no "beauty shots", no clunky graphics. Just great, clear educational footage, with a few explanatory, meaningful graphics. Congrats!

If Optimus will enter production for internal use late this year, and enter volume production for external sales in 2025, Tesla has to be constructing the buildings and infrastructure for that production now. What are the Giga-Texas South Extension (SE) , new End Of Line (EOL) building, and The Boring Company (TBC) tunnel between them for? Perhaps Optimus production (SE) and Inventory/Programming/Shipping (EOL) and a protected and secure route for Optimi to walk themselves from SE to EOL. Tesla has already moved new vehicle staging from the east side to the west side, they obviously don't need an expensive tunnel to do it. The best part is no part. Why is the new EOL building so large, all on one floor, and with those loading docks at each end? Why is Tesla laying concrete pipe under the trailer parking lot south of the EOL building? They always use galvanized steel corrugated pipes under parking lots and roads. They've only used concrete pipe under buildings. Before they started foundations for the new SE building, they dug up all the corrugated pipes and replaced them with concrete pipes. They have finished the steelwork on the SE, yet there is still a large quantity of structural steel staged north of the EOL building. It appears a building will be built at (or over) the west end of the tunnel. Trailers now seem to be gradually clearing out of the west warehouse-on-wheels. There is an extremely logical explanation if you include Optimus robot production in the equation. Recent videos from Tesla and others (Sandy Munro, Farzad Mesbahi, Randy Kirk, etc.) have indicated Optimus will be used soon, if not already, on the Tesla production line(s) for beta testing purposes. After a very finite testing period, they will enter production, most likely in the main factory building at Giga Texas, it seems likely that's what the South Extension is for. "The part furthest from the glass" is for major water-cooled compute to be installed, according to permits Joe Tegtmeyer located. Hmmm! Compute for FSD training for all current models is already in place and in use and Tesla is "no longer compute constrained." What upcoming product needs this enormous new capacity? Optimi will be filling LOTS of different roles in different settings, so they will need lots of different neural network instances and many different sets of millions of different videos to be trained on. That additional compute capability is further confirmation that the SE is for Optimus production. Since they will weigh less than 130-140 pounds each, they would be subject to theft, plus they shouldn't be out in the weather before sale and delivery. Space in the main factory building is at a premium, especially for something as mundane as finished goods inventory, plus traffic is bad enough without adding shipping thousands of Optimus robots. Solution: build a tunnel from the production building to the new EOL inventory and shipping building. Build the first TBC tunnel with one end inside the Gigafactory at the end of the Optimus production line and the other end in the new Optimus Inventory/Shipping (OI/S) building. Manufacture Optimus robots in the factory. When assembly (with partially charged cells) and initial programming are done, they walk themselves through the Boring Company tunnel over to the OI/S building for final checkout, complete charging, and being inventoried. After they are sold, they are taken out of inventory, OTA updated with a neural net version appropriate for their future use(es), and loaded into semis for shipping, all inside the OI/S building. All unaffected by weather, secure, and safe, 24 hours a day.The big new west parking lot and large number of Superchargers are for further Model Y and Cybertruck production ramping and Model 2 production capacity as well as. Now we know more since the east end of the tunnel came up inside the new south extension building. Since the west end is in the open, south of the new EOL building, other possibilities are another building constructed over the west tunnel entrance after the tunnelling infrastructure is removed, or a secure, covered walkway is built from the west tunnel entrance to the EOL building. Given the amount of structural steel staged to the north, near Tesla Road, a new OI/S building seems most likely. The timing seems about right for Optimus production. If Optimus production grows exponentially and exceeds the tunnel capacity, they could build another parallel tunnel right next to the first one. When the 7-story parking garage goes into use, that will free up a large area of current parking lot land for additional factory buildings. If one or more are for additional Optimus production lines, more tunnels could be constructed from them as well.

I wonder if thery weill have the room to plave 2b tunnels rioght next to each other

Great shots

Wicked

Like a scene out of Dune !

The tunnel came out.

"And thar she blows" the great white whale breaches thanks for capturing the event

Great footage but... Only 360P? The East West trackage is a Main Line, not an interstate The 'Y' is the INTERCHANGE to the main line Engines used in the yard are "SWITCHERS" Engines used on the MAIN are "ROAD ENGINES" A line of connected cars is a "STRING" Once "Made up", the string is called a "CONSIST" However, Good on yuh for not calling this in Hutto, It's indeed in Taylor Good, we've not seen coverage up here for ages hope you make a habit of it. Hàve you heard what AAR radio channelzz they use in the yard? Do you plan on looking at the Samsung plant? Subscribed. All notifications. THANKS,

Like the Dune sand worm…

Great choice and shots. It does look like there may not be enough space in there for a second tunnel, which has been speculated. It looks like this one comes up nearly dead center of that area. Just an observation.

Thanks! Special thanks for going out early and getting these great shots of the TBM. Super clear footage in the morning light. 0:33. Southend, west. Level 1. Pumps connected to a manifold. 0:50. Southend, Central Structure. Top right. 2 Alimaks (construction elevators/lifts) 2:06. Southend, west. Inside. Drone suddenly drops as the TBM is spotted! Incredible drilling accuracy. Parallel to the right of the TBM is a concrete stormwater drain of 3’ 0.9m or so. Column footings/piles caps either side. 2:51. Southend, Central Structure/Date Centre. Temporary flexible ducting for construction HVAC. Scaffold loading platforms. 4:53. Southend, Central Structure. Level 2. Large vertical pipe risers up to the Mezzanine/Level 3. 8:22. Southend, south. Apron. Excavations in front of the central and east subterranean escape passages. East passage. Series of holes cored where the retaining wall will be demolished. Track for a demoltion saw fixed to the wall to the right. 8:56. Southend, east. Level 2. Large diameter pipes in the excavation. Concrete thrust blocks on each corner. 9:17. Southend, east. Tank Farm. Suspended scaffold platforms under the roof.

That tunnel portal ended up a lot deeper into the interior of the building than I was expecting.

I appreciate your amazing footage!

That sunrise shot at 0:20 is absolutely stunning.

Incrível show vista no período noturno no aguardo

Daaaaaamn. Cheers.

Thanks a great video….exactly where many of us predicted….

The next question: Do they pull the machine out of the tube and send it across the way for another tunnel so that they have two way traffic or set up signal lights so that they can share one tunnel in both directions?

Great video....great sunrise and fantastic ground or near-ground shots. We can see where the Boring Company's tunnel emerges into the south extension. And NO GOD-AWFUL copyright-free background music...silence is golden.

Best sunrise over giga texas ever. ❤

Truly stunning early morning footage... Fantastic work. In a world that is so messed up this is a wonderful way to start the day 🫂🇺🇸💞🇺🇦

Great work! I’ll always remember where I was when I saw it for the first time 😉🙂

is this the first image of the boring machine emerging at the factory? Nice job spotting this, thanks for sharing!

Excellent dude 🌵

Awesome shots this morning. great work. Thanks for getting up early :)

Confirmend... Thank you... 🙂

Amazing footage! The Boring Company must have incredible precision to emerge their Prufrock inside the building. Great work.

You deserve way more subscribers because of your rail yard coverage and this before sunrise flight.

@ 2:13 and 3:54 TBM has surfaced.

Samsung's Giga Texas

It has been a couple of years since I have seen Giga Texas on youtube. Still a total cluster "F".

When will Tesla use FSD for its logistics?

thanks for uploading this, the quality is amazing! this is going to be a silly question, but is Giga Texas the same factory such as Austin, Texas? I'm awaiting delivery of quicksilver long range awd model y, 5 seater with white interior

Great video!

Thank you!

9:09. Southend, south. Apron. Left. Digging deep, right in front of the speculative subterranean east fire escape passage.

As a railfan this is much appreciated. Glad you were able to capture the whole operation. Great job! Never heard the term Interstate engine, usually road engine, switcher and road switcher.
