( March 2017 ) Left to right : Shiny, Buddy, Tiny, Don This is a list of characters seen on Dinosaur Train, a 2009 CGI animated television series produced by The Jim Henson Company for PBS Kids. Contents 1 Main characters 2 Secondary characters 3 Dinosaurs gathered for the `` A '' to `` Z '' big idea 4 Other characters 5 References Main characters Buddy ( voiced by Phillip Corlett in Season 1 and 2, by Sean Thomas in Season 3 and by Dayton Wall in Season 4 ) -- Buddy is the protagonist of the series. He is a male Tyrannosaurus that was adopted by the Pteranodon family while still in an egg, as was explained in the show 's opening credits. Buddy is friendly and precocious, much like his siblings, and his main trait is his inquisitive nature, wherein he likes to ask questions and form hypotheses. Since Buddy is incapable of flight, the family accommodates his differences by carrying him to when the others are going somewhere that requires flight. His sharp eyesight allows him to be the spotter for the Pteranodon family when they go fishing ; he spots the fish underwater and tells the other members of the family where to fish. Buddy 's color is orange in his family. He also tends to be quite curious. In early episodes, whenever they went through the Time Tunnel, Buddy would feel nauseous. Tiny ( voiced by Claire Corlett ) -- Tiny is a female Pteranodon. Her favorite hobby is rhyming and during the series, she approaches each of the dinosaurs with the confidence of a news reporter. She is Buddy 's best friend as well as his adopted sister. Her color is green, much like Don and her parents. When she meets a new dinosaur, she introduces herself and her family. Among her siblings, she is the only one who looks exactly like her mother. She is the smallest of the family, and sometimes likes to hide in holes and crevices in the trees, which she calls her `` Tiny Place '', and at times takes her smallness very seriously, especially when dealing with dinosaurs smaller than her. Don ( voiced by Alexander Matthew Marr in Season 1 and 2 and by Joey Silva in Season 3 ) -- Don is a male Pteranodon. He is known for his singing his catchphrase jingle `` La la LOO ! '' when something fancies him the right way, and appears to be a silly and somewhat dim - witted comic relief when compared to his rest of his family. He enjoys dancing, digging holes, observing ( and then eating ) insects, and collecting objects for his nature collection. He 's a little wider than Shiny and Tiny as he has a larger chin, very similar to his grandfather. Shiny ( voiced by Erika - Shaye Gair ) -- Shiny is the second female Pteranodon who is less tomboyish than Tiny and loves roleplaying with her siblings. Shiny 's color differs from the Pteranodon members of her immediate family as she is aqua green, while the other Pteranodons are a grass or leaf green, although her grandmother is a similar shade of cyan. She enjoys collecting shells and shiny objects, something she has an affinity for given her namesake. In most episodes, she can be seen hanging out with Mr. Conductor 's nephew Gilbert Troodon, with whom she is infatuated with. Though Shiny goes along with her siblings on their various adventures, she is more timid and reserved, especially when dealing with something she finds potentially scary or unfamiliar ( at times responding to such trepidation by hiding behind or next to either parent, though usually her father, whom she appears the closest to among her parents ). Whenever something tickles her fancy or she feels especially proud and beaming, her beak will glisten with a single `` shine, '' another trait per her name. Mr. Conductor ( voiced by Ian James Corlett ) -- A male Troodon who operates the Dinosaur Train. Personality-wise he is friendly, warm, playful and charming to everyone he meets, and is a special friend to Buddy ( often postscripting his name with `` my buddy ! '' ). He is also very wise in all things flora and fauna, usually being the first person the Pteranodon clan turns to whenever they need of learn something specific about a certain dinosaur or species, in which he is all to happy to oblige and teach. Although he prefers to be called Mr. Conductor by everyone except his mother ( Mrs. Conductor, who usually refers to him as `` Sonny boy '' ) and Don ( who calls him `` Mr. The Conductor '' by mistake, to which the Conductor will playfully call him `` Mr. The Don '' in response ). Whenever the Dinosaur Train approaches a time tunnel, the conductor says, `` Time Tunnel, Time Tunnel Approaching ! '' He also hides his feathers under his hat. Mr. Conductor also tends to get shy around his mother whenever she visits. He also serves as the host of the series as he shows the viewers what will happen in today 's episode before each episode. Mrs. Pteranodon ( voiced by Ellen Kennedy ) -- The mother of Tiny, Shiny, Don, and Buddy. She is a teacher, companion, and thinks of herself as the ultimate tour guide. Unlike most other adult female characters in the series, her first name is never revealed in the series ; her children introduce her to other dinosaurs as `` Our Mom, ' Mom ', '' and other dinosaurs ( the Conductor included ) simply refer to her as `` Mrs. Pteranodon. '' Mr. Pteranodon ( voiced by Colin Murdock ) -- The father of Tiny, Shiny, Don, and Buddy, and the husband of Mrs. Pteranodon. He likes to think of himself as the family 's coach, evidenced by the fact that he can make a squawking sound that sounds vaguely of a coach 's whistle ( a trait he seems to have inherited from his mother ) and refers to his family as `` Team Pteranodon '', or simply `` Team. '' One of his interests is taking Don and Shiny on fishing expeditions while Buddy and Tiny ride the Dinosaur Train with his wife. Like his wife, his children sometimes introduce him as `` Our Dad, Dad. '' Mr. Pteranodon also suffers from a few phobias, namely based off any additional Dinosaur Train technology ; when it comes to the Dinosaur Train Zeppelin, he gets a little airsick at first, but he overcomes it by trying steering it, and with the Dinosaur Drill Train he becomes panicky when thinking about the prospect of being stuck underground.

Pauline Proganochelys -- A female Proganochelys ( prehistoric turtle ) from Pangea during the Triassic period. She is a heavily armored turtle ; with spikes on her neck, a tough shell and a hard tail she is capable of defending herself, though the spikes on her neck prevent her head from retracting into her shell like other turtles. She is also a mother, but unlike other mothers, she leaves her children to defend for themselves thanks to their own defenses, but she is still proud of her offspring.
