Best Answer

Since the underground railroad wasn't a real railroad, but a method for slaves to escape north there wasn't a conductor. Some times people like Harriet Tubman would lead people, but many times they were just told what the next stop was until they got north.

They were the people who lead the escaping slaves north. The "railroad" was a series of stops on the route north. They would hide in barns, basements, and other spots over night before being sent on to the next stop.
