Yes, but it's the building not the people we're after.

TFFT.
1854 - An enormous picnic was held on the Capitol grounds in Madison, Wisconsin to celebrate the arrival of the first train.
The full story is a delight of dullness:
1854 - First Railroad Reaches Madison
On this date the Milwaukee and Mississippi railroad reached Madison, connecting the city with Milwaukee. When the cars pulled into the depot, thousands of people gathered to witness the ceremonial arrival of the first train, and an enormous picnic was held on the Capitol grounds for all the passengers who'd made the seven-hour trip from Milwaukee to inaugurate the line.
