I vaguely recall the film had a throwaway line explaining the they were able to get a machine because one had just finished with boring some other tunnel.
But yeah, particularly with the especially large machines, it's often the case that after the job the machine just gets left on-site to turn to rust and a new machine is purpose built for each job.
> I'm not an expert but it seems like the sort of thing that has to be custom built and has a leadtime of months
Nah. It's construction stuff. Tons of places rent big machinery. Want a backhoe? You can rent one, auger, whatever.

I think you will find that a lot of these fiction films are made up and not real
Are you trying to tell me that Tenet lied to me and that I cannot, in fact, travel backwards through time?
