In early 2008, after the successful first run of Hey Arnold! on Nickelodeon, Craig Bartlett decided to create another children series, this one set during the era of the dinosaurs, including the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous periods.

Bartlett conceived the idea for the show, drew the main characters, and wrote a pilot script.

Dinosaur Train is produced and animated by Sparky Animation in Singapore, with casting by Vidaspark and voice-overs recorded at Kozmic Sound in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

It premiered on Labor Day 2009 and aired daily on PBS Kids, and in various countries around the world. 40 half-hour episodes were ordered by PBS Kids for the first season.

PBS Kids had ordered 11 more episodes, taking the total number of episodes to 100.
