She ends up meeting with Jesse, and a supernatural deer who they nickname Alan Dracula. Book Two follows MT (Mirror Tulip), the renegade Mirror Self of Tulip, who is continuing her attempts to evade the pair of reflection officers, who were introduced in episode seven, “The Chrome Car.” MT escapes her car and is on the run from the Reflection Police, who want to either kill her or return her to their mirror world.

However, Book Two builds upon the foundation of the series and plays with the morality of what the train can do to people. That’s why, when we see her become this more emotionally mature person over the course of 10 eleven-minute episodes, it’s totally satisfying. She is stubborn, a little selfish, and often so single-minded that she misses out on the things around her. Tulip herself isn’t some perfect pollyanna on the outs. The train allows her to deal with how her parents were not right together and their divorce was actually a good thing. Tulip’s adventure is pretty straightforward as a hero’s quest to return home. However, your number can go up or down towards (you guessed it) infinity. It turns out the train was created as a way for people to come and work out their feelings through a number of quests that would eventually lead to them being released. As we follow her, we see the number on her hand going up and down depending on the actions she takes and how she allows herself to come to terms with the emotional issues she’s been keeping down. She ends up going on a journey, with a weird talking robot ball named One-One and a Corgie King named Atticus, to find out the secret of the train. Okay, so the train is a metaphor for therapy.īook One opens with a teenage girl named Tulip (Ashley Johnson, Recess), who is struggling to deal with the emotional aftermath of her parents’ divorce, running away from home and ending up on the train with a mysterious number on her hand. **Spoilers for Book One and Book Two of Infinity Train.** Created by Owen Dennis, a storyboard artist on the long-running Cartoon Network series Regular Show, the anthology series could easily be summed up as a young girl going on an emotional adventure on a seemingly endless train heading to nowhere, but that summary belies the emotionally charged ride that is Infinity Train. Cartoon Network’s Infinity Train is a strangely beautiful show.
