Part of the Carlisle-to-Settle rail line damaged by a 500,000 tonne landslip in February is to stay closed until at least March 2017.
Network Rail has begun a £23m project to repair the line at Armathwaite which was damaged following heavy rain.
The scheme will see hundreds of concrete-filled steel piles driven into the surrounding bedrock in the hope of preventing further landslides.
Network Rail has apologised for ^continued disruption^ to passengers.
