After Trump's inauguration, Joe Biden took the train home to Delaware
Former Vice President Joe Biden has left the capital. Not long after President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence were sworn into office, Biden and his wife Jill Biden were pictured hopping on a train in Washington, D.C., to head back home to Delaware. "Back on Amtrak," Biden said, giving a thumbs up to the cameras.
Biden rode Amtrak nearly every day when he was a senator, reportedly racking up 8,000 round-trips.
