Introduction

This list is based on the timetable in force from 10 December 2023. Standard abbreviations are explained here.

Map references for each route entry are given in parentheses ( ). References prefixed "ERA-E" refer to the European Railway Atlas (All-Europe Edition) by M.G. Ball. References prefixed "ERA-R" refer to the European Railway Atlas (Regional Series: Book 3) by M.G. Ball.

Obscure services

Rīga pasažieru — Vagonu Parks/Vagonnyi Park (— Jāņavārti)

(ERA-E 114C3, not shown; ERA-R 251C2, not shown) LV23/1

All-stations electric suburban services in both directions, and also a very limited number of longer distance DMU services, deviate from the double track main line and run to the south of carriage sidings and an EMU depot. They use a single track line and call at Vagonu Parks/Vagonnyi Park station. These frequent services run every day and can be easily identified in the Riga - Ogre and Lielvārde timetable.

Other sparse services

The following lines have a limited service of fewer than three trains a day each way or do not run every day:

Valmiera - Valga Two trains each way a day
Rēzekne - Zilupe Two trains each way a day
Pļaviņas - Madona - Gulbene One train a day SSuX from/to Madona; one pair of trains SSuO to/from Gulbene, plus one outbound FO, providing a second service back to Riga SO.
(Jelgava -) Dobele - Liepāja One each way a day; two each way SuO
(Šiauliai- Šarkiai LG -) Meitene - Jelgava One return Vilnius - Riga train a day.
Daugavpils - Indra Daugavpils - Krāslava one train a day; Krāslava - Indra one train ThFO out and FSO back.
