Many countries, a few include America and Britain who have Subways and the London Underground respectively. Russia also has a the Moscow Metro which is their underground system which was built much later and was one of Stalin's prestige projects, being one of the most extravagant underground railroad service.

The Underground Railroad was called a 'railroad' because there were multiple stops along the way for slaves to get food, clothes, and other supplies. It was called the 'underground' railroad because it was a mostly secret operation to get slaves from the South to the North and to Canada. Many would not stop in the North because they could still be captured and returned to their "owners."The Underground Railroad was a secret network to the North for escaping slaves in the South prior to the US Civil War. It was a step-by-step passage created by escaped slaves and abolitionists, including sympathizers in the South. So it wasn't actually a railroad, or even under the ground, for the most part.It is called "underground" in the same sense as the French Underground of World War II, a secret group within an oppressive society. The term "railroad" is used because, much like trains travelling from station to station, the slaves were moved north over a few days or weeks, usually at night. Anti-slavery sympathizers allowed the use of their houses and farms to feed, clothe, and hide the escapees.
it was hard because it was deep underground
many of them were wiped out during World War II. Hitler and his wife/mistress committed suicide in their underground bunker just as the Allies approached.

The Nazi Gestapo was constantly on the alert for underground resistors. The resistance network ran The Comete Line and another underground railroad to help downed pilots and Jews escape European countries. The Gestapo never let up on searching for the people who were trying to escape the "underground railroad". They did not really "invade" the underground railroad but rather arrested and often imprisoned the evaders/escapees or killed them outright. I have added my favorite, interesting related site for you to read about the underground railroad of World War 2. This site has many related links that might interest you too. This site gave me a ton of information when I was doing research for my book.
The "underground railroad" was neither a railroad, nor was it underground. In the same sense of the French Underground in World War II, the Underground Railroad was a secret group, composed of anti-slavery sympathizers in the North and South before the US Civil War. The group helped escaped slaves to reach freedom and safety, usually in non-slavery states of the North. At that time, slave owners would often pursue slaves who fled North, and the "railroad" frequently provided new identities to protect slaves from organized slave hunters. Beginning in the areas where the slaves escaped, farmers or townspeople would provide food, new clothing, and hiding places for the slaves. Then , usually at night, they would be moved to safe locations farther north, or to ships on the coast. So it commonly took several days to weeks for slaves to complete their journey. Once in the North, they would be provided homes, jobs, and often new names.
it allows people to express their feelings and beliefs and during the underground railroad it was used to communicate to fleeing slaves giving them directions to freedom
if there are any people about 15 m away from you, it will turn on automatically. (you cannot play underground with people from other places in the world, only people who are pretty close to you when you play)
Walt Disney World Railroad was created in 1971.
Corrie ten Boom joined the Dutch underground railroad during World War II, specifically around 1942. This network was established to help Jews escape Nazi persecution by hiding them and facilitating their escape to safety. Corrie and her family used their home in Haarlem, Netherlands, to shelter those in need, ultimately leading to their arrest in 1944.
The duration of The Underground World is 480.0 seconds.
