Kyune is one of three sidings located on Soldier Summit. Even though Soldier Summit has two main tracks, sidings are still occasionally necessary. If nothing else, two of them can serve as crossover between the two mains as they are "center sidings", located between the two main tracks. Kyune is the first of the sidings when heading west. The Mountaineer throttles up as the max speed increases from 30 MPH to 35 MPH. Note the very interesting signal protecting the siding. The red signals on the right side of the signal indicate the switch leaving the siding is aligned toward Main 2.
