direct, LTG Link, once daily, about 4h13m -- the single physical Pesa 730 working that starts in Vilnius and terminates in Riga, genuinely direct with no change; a separate onward Riga-Valga sector of the SAME coordinated cross-Baltic itinerary is operated by Vivi, but that is Riga-Valga, not this Vilnius-Riga leg

  • Easy to get wrong

    Do not conflate this direct Vilnius-Riga leg with the onward Riga-Valga-Tallinn sector of the coordinated cross-Baltic itinerary, which DOES require a cross-platform change of train at Valga -- that is a genuinely separate service and is not represented as a direct Riga-Tallinn corridor in this catalogue.
