the underground railroad is not actually a railroad, but a escape system back in the 1800's to help slaves escape. it was not fast, and it could sometimes take the slaves months to get to the north. they were after all, hiding in houses and traveling at night. (so don't try to see if you can get a ticket on the underground railroad!)
