In 1877, Torņakalns Station also became the eastern terminus of the Torņakalns–Tukums railway line.
The terminal of Riga–Jelgava Railway, was opened in 1868 and called Riga-Mitauer Bahnhof back then.
This was a very important station, which secured the connection of Riga with Semigallia, but in 1872 one year after construction of the railway bridge across the Daugava, it lost its significance and was renamed Riga III, and later Riga III Commodity Station, which was part of the joint Torņakalns station.
In 1950, after the electrification of the Riga-Dubulti railway section, electric trains began to stop in Tornakalns.
In December 1972, the Riga-Jelgava line was electrified and the electric trains in that direction was in service as well.
