There are two routes from Paneriai towards Valčiūnai used by trains serving Vaidotai staff halts (see LT13/3) , a direct south curve and longer outside curve leading away from the north side platform that climbs to cross over the Kaunas main line. Both curves are reversibly signalled and rail staff confirm that which curve is taken is variable and subject to regulation.

Since 2010/11 two afternoon services on the  Vilnius – Stasylos line have been diverted via the western part of the Vilnius southern avoiding line as a service to railway staff working in Vaidotai marshalling yard. The southbound service uses the line on the south west side of Vaidotai yard and  the northbound train the line on the north east side. There are identically named staff halts at Vaidotai KIK, MRC & AIK on each separate line. Calls at these halts are listed as footnotes in the journey planner and appear on the printed timetable sheets available from major stations. See also [[Vaidotai]]
