Underground Railway?

Question

Underground Railway?

Answer 1

The London Post Office underground railway in England used to run from Whitechapel to Paddington mail sorting office, with the control room at Mount Pleasant. It is now 'mothballed', although there were plans to extend it to the Princess Anne concentration centre at Stonebridge Park (North west London on the Euston-Watford rail line). The trains were driverless electric articulated units.

Another interesting underground railway is in Glasgow, Scotland, where the two-track route is circular with no branches. The cars are lifted from the tracks to the storage/repair depot by crane.

Answer 5

The underground railway refers to the secret slave passage from the southern U.S. to Canada and other northern free states. It was a network of churches and farmhouses that slaves escaping the south would hide out in while making the journey north. Most who suceeded in escaping lived in Canada until slavery was abolished, those who were caught were usually executed.
