TONNES of walling stone have been airlifted to Blea Moor to help repair crumbling track-side walls on the famous Settle to Carlisle railway line.
A helicopter flew in 178 tonnes of newly-quarried rock from the foot of the Ribblehead Viaduct to the remote moorland site.
Local dry stone wallers have been contracted to rebuild a mile-and-a-half stretch of wall, which is hoped will be finished by late October.
