Unmanned location, dead end siding and a passenger halt on the  Port Augusta-Hawker Line . The section from Port Augusta to Quorn is now known as the  Pichi Richi Railway  named after the pass, at Summit, where the railway crosses over the Flinders Ranges.

True to its name, Summit is the highest point on the line at 406m (1332ft).

The line from Port Augusta to Quorn was closed in 1956 but the section from Quorn to Summit was still in use by passenger excursion trains from Peterborough in the 1960s. Summit was used as a terminus with the tour trains running "top and tail" with a loco at both ends for the return trip to Quorn.

The Pichi Richi Railway was formed in 1974 and initially ran tour trains from Quorn to Summit. They now operate heritage tourist diesel and steam trains on the fully restored narrow gauge line between Quorn and Port Augusta but still use Summit as a waypoint halt with the siding used to pass crossing trains.
