Trains

Main

The series follows the adventures of eight trains each with a different purpose and skill.

  • Freight Nate (voiced by Dylan Schombing in the US dub, Ben Riley in the UK dub and Tony Daniels when singing opera in Big Bart's Wild Ride) is a fast red train. His job is hauling heavy freight. He is strong, fast, friendly and heroic. Nate is equipped with an onboard crane with a hydraulic claw at the end of his cable. He also has a set of stabilizer legs to help him keep steady while loading his cars.
  • Mechanic Milo (voiced by Leo Orgil in the US dub and Tom Rimmer in the UK dub) Mechanic Milo's main job is keeping the tracks in tip top shape, but he will tackle any puzzle that gets thrown his way. He is curious and dependable and highly detail oriented. Milo has a hydraulic arm mounted on his back, with a claw on the end resembling a monkey wrench. He can also fire tracks from his front bufferbeam. His cab sports robotic arms in the sides and either drive spikes into the tracks he lays or welds them together.
  • Build-It Brock (voiced by Tyler Nathan in the US dub and Chester Podd in the UK dub) builds what the town needs. Brock loves to help, even though he can be a bit shy at times. Brock has a cement mixer on his back and is equipped with a set of front end loader arms on his front.
  • Farmer Faye (voiced by Michela Luci in the US dub and Bethan Archer in the UK dub) is kind and caring. Her job is to move farm produce and animals and help out on the farm with feeding and fertilizing. Faye is friendly and community-minded, always keeping tabs on every train, child, and critter in town. Her front section has a set of combine harvester reels. Faye is the only mighty Express train not to run on bogies, as she has four small driving wheels joined by a pair of two larger ones, connected by a complex of coupling rods. She overall resembles a tractor crossed with a steam locomotive. She also speaks with a strong and powerful southwestern US accent, and has a lasso in her roof to boot.
  • Rescue Red (voiced by Evan Lefeuvre in the US dub and Harry Coomber in the UK dub) is a red fire engine/EMT train and the older brother to Flicker that makes breathtaking rescues and takes care of the safety of everyone in town. He takes his job very seriously and is always focused on reciting helpful or not so helpful regulations from his handy guide, Red's Rulebook. Red has a ladder on his back and set of emergency lights atop his cab.
  • Peoplemover Penny (voiced by Annick Obonsawin in the US dub and Grace Mynard in the UK dub) is super friendly. Her job is to move children from station to station and greets everyone in the morning with her bubbly personality. Penny can open her roof and elevate her seats to let her passengers into the open air.
  • Flicker (voiced by Ian Ho in the US dub and Oliver White in the UK dub) is a tiny red engine and the little brother of Rescue Red. Flicker is in charge of small rescues. He is energetic and playful, but sometimes a bit naive. Flicker features a singular light on his roof and he features a fire hose reel on his rear that can also discharge air. Flicker is smaller than the other trains, and as such, his interior is meant more for Diesel to ride in.
  • Mandy Mail (voiced by Gracen Daly in the US dub and Megan Cowlan in the UK dub) is a new female character that debuted in A Mighty Christmas. Mandy is very prideful and often expects important deliveries and at times will refuse help even when she needs it. Her job is to transport letters from kids and take them to either the North Pole for Santa Claus to receive or any destination around the world. Mandy joined the main roster starting with the Christmas special, and as a mail carrier, she possesses multiple compartments to carry packages and letters. Much like Flicker, Mandy's interior is meant more for animals to ride in, primarily Flap the Carrier Pigeon. She also has letter shooters.

Humans

Main

  • Max (voiced by Jay Hatton in the US dub and Theo Somolu in the UK dub) is the leader of the team and the main African-American kid in charge. Max is exuberant, energetic, inspiring and empathetic.
  • Liza (voiced by Zoe Hatz in the US dub and Isabella Cobley in the UK dub) is a train whisperer. Despite being a mechanical engineer, she is creative, handy, optimistic, and all around spunky. Always tinkering and poking around to see how things work. She is the only female human member of the Mighty Express team.
  • Nico (voiced by Meesha Contreras in the US dub and Luca Bradley in the UK dub) is the trackmaster and cartographer. He is a quick thinker and multitasker, his nerdy enthusiasm also makes him a great puzzle solver.

Villains

Train

  • Tricky Ricky (voiced by Christian Campbell the US dub and Rahul Joshi in the UK dub) is a trickster who while charismatic at first glance is very immature compared to the other trains, focusing on causing trouble for others instead of helping them. He works as a part of a duo with Sneaky Stella, though the two often argue on whose name goes first. Ricky is equipped with multiple tools and gadgets that rival the main Mighty Express trains, including a few that are copied directly from them. He and Stella debuted in the special Train Trouble.

Human

  • Sneaky Stella (voiced by Shazdeh Kapadia in the US dub and Ada Tracz in the UK dub) is a young girl who delights in causing chaos, and unlike the Mighty Express crew does not care about the problems of others. She works as a part of a duo with Tricky Ricky, though the two often argue on whose name goes first. She and Ricky debuted in the special Train Trouble.
