In 1919, the station and the settlement were renamed Tolmachyovo to commemorate Nikolay Tolmachyov, a bolshevik killed in the area during the Russian Civil War.

On August 1, 1927, the uyezds were abolished and Luzhsky District, with the administrative center in the town of Luga, was established.

The governorates were also abolished, and the district was a part of Luga Okrug of Leningrad Oblast.

The M20 highway, connecting Saint Petersburg with Pskov and eventually with Kyiv, runs several kilometers east of Tolmachyovo.
