Who were the passengers on the underground railroad?
Many slaves! The underground railroad was a system of smuggling slaves! There were ofter signs or signals in a persons window so a slave could know the house was a safe place to hide in. The slaves mostly traveled at night and hid in the day. Once a slave got to the north they were considered free but, if their owner found them they could take them back. Also if another white man thought he was his even though he wasn't he could still take the slave because the white men were always right.
