Bought this for a three year old nephew who loves trains and dinosaurs. Personally, I don't see how the two connect but someone was ingenious enough to match the two separate interests and combine them into a toy series. I presume to a kid it makes perfect sense to have dinosaurs ride train cars. Anyway, the toys are well made, sturdy enough to take a little roughhousing and very colorful. Each dinosaur and train car is different and corresponds to the PBS TV show "Dinosaur Train" which the kids watch so they are already familiar with the characters.

My 1 1/2 year old son loves the Dinosaur train every time he sees the show he is mesmerized and growls/roars along and when the train comes around CHOO CHOO. We got him the old train set and they all come with a character and they all connect together to make the Dinosaur Train. He plays with the Dinosaurs seprate and the train holds his Hotweels while he makes the Dinosaurs chase the train. (i wish i knew what ran threw his head) It's a great toy and a great show

My daughter is a huge Dinosaur Train fan, and we bought all of the available characters to go with the train set in October as Christmas gifts. She was very excited when she unwrapped all of them, and she loves playing with it, but there are definitely several downsides. The characters are not to scale with each other and most are too large to be in a car with more than one other. Some of the characters don't stand up well on their own, and some of the characters with smaller feet have their product ID number printed elsewhere on their body (Shiny Pteranadon, for example), which somewhat detracts from the illusion. Overall, though, she still loves it, but I was hoping it would be more than it is. On the plus side, the characters all look quite like their animated counterparts.

I also found the inclusion of Ollie and Orin Ornithomimus a bit excessive, as I did with Delores and Boris Tyrannosaurus, especially considering some characters that were neglected altogether, such as Patrica Palaeobatrachus; Cindy Cimolestes; Rick Oryctodromeus; Arnie Argentinosaurus; Alvin Allosaurus; Spiky Stygimoloch; Hank Ankylosaurus; Bucky Masiakasaurus; Daphne Daspletosaurus; King Cryolophosaurus; The Lambeosaurus Family, Leroy, Lily, Larry, and Lorraine; more Troodons, such as Mrs. Conductor, Gilbert, Travis, The Station Master, and/or The Troodon Official; Cory Corythosaurus; Quincy Quetzalcoatlus and/or Mr. "Wing King" Quetzalcoatlus; Iggy Iguanodon; Mikey Microraptor; The Old Spinosaurus; Keenan Chirostenotes; Arlene Archaeopteryx; Teri Therizinosaurus; and Howard Dragonfly. Not to mention some marine-dwelling characters, such as Mitch and/or Max Michelinoceras, Elmer Elasmosaurus, Carla Cretoxyrhina, and Paulie Pliosaurus, and maybe an accompanying aquacar.

If/when a new line of characters is released, we will no doubt add them to her collection, but we'd also like to see an improved train set to go along with them.
