Revision as of 09:22, 20 February 2015

All rail routes between this pair of countries are 1520mm gauge.

(Daugavpils -) Kurcums LDz - Turmantas LG (- Švenčioneliai - Vilnius)

[D] This route carries one daily train pair between St Peterburg and Vilnius, although this service will be withdrawn at the end of May 2015. LG works to Daugavpils.

(Daugavpils -) Eglainē LDz - Obeliai[1] LG (- Rokiškis - Radviliškis)

[D] No passenger service.

(Riga - Jelgava -) Meitene LDz - Šarkiai LG (- Šiauliai - Vilnius)

[D] The HAFAS website showed a train in one direction only in December 2010 but it is thought this was an error.

(Riga - Jelgava -) Reņge LDz - Laižuva LG (- Mažeikiai)

[D] This line was closed on 23 February 2010, when the (Rīga -) Jelgava - Renge service was withdrawn after the Lithuanians lifted the tracks on their side of the border in 2009 to prevent oil trains from the huge Mažeikiai refinery exporting their products via Ventspils. This action was declared illegal by an EU court, which required LG to have relaid the track by March 2012. The track is in situ but no traffic had passed as at early May 2012.

(Priekule -) Vaiņode LDz - Lūšé LG (- Mažeikiai)

[D] Line closed and cut at Bugeniai.

(Priekule -) Kaleti LDz - Skuodas LG (- Klaipeda)

[D] Line closed.
