What is the Underground Railroad and how did it work?
Negro slaves that escaped from their imprisonment followed a route north to Canada, where many people along the way took them in and gave them a place to eat, sleep and hide while their "masters" were looking for them. Many people that did take them in weren't Negro themselves, but Caucasians that were against slavery and wanted these slaves to be free. As a result, they were willing to risk everything to open up their homes in secret to offer their kindness and hospitality to the escapees in their desperate times and dreams of their freedom when they crossed the border into Canada.

On the underground railroad what were stations and conductors?
The underground railroad (not a railroad and mostly not underground) was the network that helped slaves escape to the North prior to the Civil War. The term "stations" referred to the individual safe locations (houses, barns, farms) that would feed, clothe, and hide the slaves as they moved step-by-step toward the free states and Canada. The "conductors" were the guides who accompanied groups of slaves, to lead them from one station to the next. In the secret organization, few guides knew more than one or two of the locations, so they could not compromise the entire organization if caught, arrested, or bribed.
