One of my favorite dinosaurs is the Tri-ceratops. So the Pteranadon family travels to Cretaceous time period to see Mrs. Triceratops, her son Tank at the trainstation as they were invited to Mrs. Pteranadon's home for lunch. Since Tank was a herbavore, he practically bulldozed through the bushes consuming tons of leaves. Concerned that he might ruin the area, everyone took a train trip to the big pond. Tank really enjoyed himself there. Tank is one of those characters I can relate to as he's always hungry and ready to eat the green vegitation. Although Tiny tried to get Tank to eat a fish, since it was her fav, Tank however spat it out as he didn't eat fish. Buddy even tried to eat leaves, but found it hard with his teeth, as he's a carnivore and his teeth were meant to eat meat.
Somehow when Tank smiles, it's one of those expressions that will make you smile, as he seems like a fun dino. His mom Mrs. Triceratops has a nice smile as well. But what got me was that within one episode when Mrs. Triceratops gave birth to a few baby Triceratops, the baby Triceratops sounded just like a human baby. I don't think that baby dinos sounded like human babies, as they may have made little grunts or squeek-type noises.

Dinosaur Train product I remember
I think that Dinosaur Train may have air previously before 2009. I do remember going to the grocery store and seeing Dinosaur Train collectible jelly jars from Welche's The drawings were very basic and not detailed much.

Dr Scott at the end of each episode
At the end of each episode, Dr Scott usually is seen with a nice large full sized drawing of the dinosaur that was featured in today's episode. As he gives his presention and tells kids some important facts on the dinosaur, sometimes you hear the sound of a doorbell, and then a door opens which reveals another man who usually says "Point of Fact." Which I think is really stupid. And then he usually corrects Dr. Scott of what he had said to the children. Is Dr. a real Paleontologist? Well, I had spoken to an official curator at our local museum, and he was highly educated and knowledgeable about the history of the area as well as the dinos and fossils he had on display. He told me that if he says things during his presentation like "We're Not Sure." "We Guess." or "We Think."
Then you may question his knowledge. So He may be a paleontologist or just an actor. Funny though that the Dinosaur Train runs on coal which is fossil fuel and made by dead decayed dinos. And the Pteranadons didn't get their fish by diving into the water, as it would be very difficult for them to fly out. Mostly they just flew really close to the water and scooped up the fish with their beaks. Most raptor birds don't go into the water to get fish, but just either grab it with their tallons, or scoop it up with their beak like a pelican. Of course the only exceptions are the King fisher bird, and Penguins, but they don't fly in the air at all. Now, I've noticed that Dr. Scott's presentations are only shown after the first episode only, and after the second episode, they show a Dinosaur train song video.

Another weird Dinosaur Train dream I had
All I remember from this dream, was that for some reason I was riding on the dinosaur train, I don't know where I was going to. There was a scene where I had gotten separated with the Pteranadon family and Mr. Conductor on some type of shopping trip to a indoor flea market. I had then realized that I was separated from the group and ran like crazy trying to find them. It was no use and I was stranded and alone and didn't have a ride to go home. However as I was walking to a nearby trainstation, I began to see Buddy and all the rest of the dinos, who had helped me by building a dinosaur train and I got on for a ride of a lifetime to get home. The only thing was that the train was going very fast and in the opposite direction. Talk about a weird dream, but I was watching my Dinosaur Train DVD that has 8 episodes. Basically I was only watching a few episodes per day. Now that was one weird dino dream.

Valentine Day Fun
I had just downloaded a cute printable on the Dinosaur Train website of Valentines Day Dino Cards featuring Buddy And Tiny. Each of them are holding a large heart with the message written on it saying "Be My Valentine" I thought it was cute and fun.

Dr,. Scott and Buddy Photo
I saw an old article on the interent where the characters of PBS kids had come to the White House to celebrate Easter outdoors. So there was one photo of Dr. Scott and Buddy the young T-rex in costume form standing next to each other. So that's what the Costume looks like, as he's now going to places, and hosting some promotional thing where you get to meet Buddy, interact with fun dino activities, and meet Dr. Scott, and watch Dinosaur Train. I had replied on that website, that they should come up with Costumed characters of Mr. Mrs. Pteranadon, Tiny, Shiny, and Don, and have them all grouped together with me for a fun photo opp. Just a thought.

Tiny Pteranadon, and what she says upon finding the reason for something.
I think that the one thing that I like is when Tiny Pteranadon is learning someting and the reason for it happening, she says "whyyyyyyyyy" in a very inquisitive and cute way.
