Tickets for immediate departures have to be bought in the main ticket hall on the right side of the main entrance, counters N°1 to 13. Tickets for international trains are sold at counters N°1 to 6. For overnight trips to Minsk or St. Petersburg choose the more luxurious coupe, four-bunk compartments or, on the train to Moscow, the first class SV, two-bunk compartments, with video and on-board service. Do not confuse perons (the platform) and ceļš (the track). They are numbered separately in Latvia and can be quite confusing. Pietur means stops and nepietur means doesn't stop, so if you see a train schedule with a list of towns and cities in the margin, it is best to check whether the train stops there or not.
