In the very early morning of August 6, 2025, the special charter train carrying the band Mumford and Sons traveled through Washington DC. This train carried 140 people involved with the Railroad Revival Tour. The Railroad Revival was a tour the band did in 2011, but they visited four cities again in 2025. The train is on its way from Richmond, VA, where their third show was on August 5, to Burlington, VT, for their last show on August 7. I caught it around 2:00 AM at L'Enfant Station.
