Introduction
This list is based on the journey planner in force at December 2021. LDz does not announce new timetables as such. Standard abbreviations are explained in General Information.
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 - The Baltic States, Belarus and Ukraine) by M.G. Ball.
Obscure services
Rīga pasažieru — Vagonu Parks/Vagonnyi Park (— Jāņavārti)
(ERA-E 114C3, not shown; ERA-R 251C2, not shown) LV21/1
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.
Jelgava — Meitene — Šarkiai (Lithuania) — Šiauliai
(ERA-E 115A3; ERA-R 253B1-C1) LV21/2
Ukrainian Railways operated a seasonal train between Kiev/Kyiv and Riga. However this was suspended with effect from 15 March 2020, as Latvia cancelled all international travel.
| D1 | 31 | Kiev/Kyiv - 05:51 Šiauliai - Riga Pass | |
| D2 | 32 | 19:40 Riga Pass - Kiev/Kyiv |
D1: Runs every 4 days. Use the journey planner to determine which dates the train runs. Note that the train is one day later from Šiauliai.
D2: Runs every 4 days. Use the journey planner to determine which dates the train runs.
Other sparse services
The following lines have a limited service of fewer than two trains a day each way or do not run every day:
| Pļaviņas - Madona | One train FSuO to Madona; SSuO from Madona | |
| (Pļaviņas -) Madona - Gulbene | Trains ran to Gulbene only 2 or 3 times in 2018 and 2019 and probably not at all in 2020. No information yet available on when trains may run in 2021. | |
| (Jelgava -) Dobele - Liepāja | Twice weekly: FSO to Liepāja; SSuO from Liepāja | |
| Zilupe - Sebezh (Russia) | Once daily to/from Moskva/St Peterburg but suspended since 15 March 2020. | |
| Daugavpils - Indra - [Bihosava (Belarus)] | Every 4 days to/from Minsk. See the International Timetable page to determine which dates the train runs. Suspended since 15 March 2020. |
