Watch: Flying Scotsman travels over the Ribblehead Viaduct
Here's the moment that the Flying Scotsman travelled over the Ribblehead Viaduct as part of a journey celebrating the reopening of the Settle-Carlisle railway line.
Network Rail shut the line at Eden Brows to trains on 9 February 2016.
Thirteen months and £5 million pounds later, it's reopened.
On that day in 2016, engineers found that the ground was slipping beneath the railway towards the River Eden 70 metres below.
Because of the size and scale of the repairs, the difficulty getting onto the site and that the ground was still moving, Network Rail has called it the most challenging repair it's ever faced.

In the end, the railway body decided to drive two rows of piles, which are steel tubes filled with concrete, into the bedrock.
On top of those, a one metre-thick 100m-long concrete shelf has been placed to form a solid base for the railway.
